the worst—result is that we compel
others to pay the price of our neglect.
The tired, worn-out shopper, vainly
searching for something that She can
find at a price within her means,
meets the more tired, worn-out clerk
who is wondering it closing time will
never come. Many of the stores even
in the smaller cities—all of them in
the larger cities—require clerks to
stand up while on duty. If yon think
that standing up from 8 a. m. until
12 p. m. Is pleasant work, or even pro
fitable work from the standpoint of
health, it is to be -oped that you will
have opportunity to put your theory
to practical test some time before the
1908 holidays. There Is nothing pleas
ant or profitable about It. And, what
Is more, it Is utterly unnecessary that
clerks should be required to so torture
themselves. Belated shopping causes
the trouble. The ^remedy lies with the
shoppers. What are you going to do
about it?—National Dally.

HOLIDAY SHOPPING.
Every man, woman and child whom
this plea reaches has done or will do
bet ween now and Christmas a certain
mount of holiday buying. Many of
them will consult their own pleasure
in the matter and will buy when It
suits their convenience. Many of
those who reside- In the country will
put off sending in their orders by mail
until, at the last moment, they find
that they are compelled to "take time’’
from other work “Tor a trip to the city
if they expect to give any presents.
The idea that they might have "taken
time” a little earlier will perhaps not
occur to them until they are forced to
activity. Those who reside In the city
are likely to be even greater offenders
than residents of*the country dis
tricts. One thing after another will
arise, until only a few' days remain in
which to purchas^&ollday presents,
and then Mr. CRi'.JplPfcgy^ftrs. City
Woman will rushfaown town half a
million other thoughtless people along
and spend an entire day trying to find
what they want
This system works to the disadvan
tage of both the shopper and the store
keeper. We know one year Jn ad
vanee that Christmas Is coming. On
the morning of the twenty-sixth day of
December, this year, we will be as
certain that next year we will have
Christmas presents to buy—barring
only death— as we will be eleven
months and twenty-nine days later.
We have 366 days, less 62 Sundays, to
prepare for every holiday season. We
waste—or most of us do—about 308
of these 313 available shopping days.
Instead of putting off our Christmas
trading until tomorrow the majority
of Americans put it off until Christ
mas, or as near that time as possible.
What is the result? Well, one result
Is that we pay twice as much for what
we buy as we would if we did our
buying at any other time of the year.
Another result Is that we lose our
tempers and wear ourselves out in
our endeavor to "wind things up and
get the presents off.’’ A third result
is that we force the storekeepers to
keep their shops open from 7 or 8
o'clock in the morning until 11 or 12
