MADE IT MORE ATTRACTIVE Same Offer of Bargains , Put In Dif ferent Form , Quickly Cleared Store of Stock. A merchant in a western city was desirous of reducing his stock with out delay , and was willing to make a liberal pacrifice of profits to do so. lie announced a x'O to 23 per cent , reduction sale. It was bona-Hdc and the prices had been cut , but the public had seen such announce ments before and was slow to come in. The merchant was discouraged. Then he had an idea. The newspa pers next day carried big "ads" an nouncing that at this store every fourth yard or every fourth article of the same price would be sold for nine cents , no matter whether it was worth ten cents or $ oO. A wom an came in to buy an article which cost five dollars. She bought two others which cost the same amount , and then a fourth , for which she paid only nine cents. The fourth , eighth and twelfth yards of every kind of cloth went for nine cunts. The store was packed and jammed and the stock cleared up in a hurry. Yet it was practically the same 23 per cent , reduction pale which had been advertised so unsuccessfully. The proposition was merely put in a more convincing way. THE LAW OF COMPENSATION.
