PROP. WAYCROSS. GEORGIA. W SHOP SHOie. Frank Farirngton in Brains gives these helpful suggestions to - merchants: There’s a right psychological moment in the making of every sale, and a man needn’t study psychology to recognize it. Don’t let the over-anxioau sales man recommend the goods more highly than the facts warrant. Goods which fail to dome up to the recommendation cause lasting dissatisfaction. - ' There is no money in promising J goods sooner than you can deliver !. them. A disappointed customer is pretty apt to be a lost customer. There is no money in promising goodB osoner than you can deliv er them. A disappointed custo mer is pretty apt to be a lost cus tomer. * It does pay to offer to get goods that you don’t have in stock when asked for. People like to be ac commodated and they will recom mend a merehnnt who accommo dates them. The storekeeper, like the politi cian, ought to have'as large a per sonal acquaintance as possible, and use it to his advantage. Keep a file handy for preserv ing clippings about store manage ment and advertising. You will be surprised to see how valuable it will be at a time when you need a new idea. All your clerks should read your advertising. That will add about fifty per cent, to its value. Quality is what counts when the customer gets the goods home and begins to use them. Sell the best quality you can every time. Don’t be a nonetity in politics, temperance or religion, but don’t fargue about those things. Argu ment only strengthens the opposi tion and weakens friendship. If you can’t be patient with an aggravating customer, let someone else wait on that customer. Why stop with showing the cus tomer the thing asked for! As long as he stays in the store he’s a possible further purchaser. A dingy store may have been all right inthe dark ages, but it won’t do any business on the great white way. There ia no adevrtisement that will do you any more good than one first-class satisfied customer. Advertising that says one word for you and a dozen for somebody else is expensive whatever it costs. Let the other fellow have the space on the hotel clock and key board, etc. Unoccupied clerks on the front steps or in the window aren’t the kind of advertising that pays. There’s a good deal more in life than just your store. Think of other things occasionally and broaden your horizon. Cultivate a fad or two. If you can’t find ways in which your methods can be improved over last year, ask any outsider. One fake sale will spoil your store for conducting any honest sales.

In a wild dash to catch bis train a belated suburbanite went leap ing up tho stairs at dn “L” sta tion, only to reach the platform just os the gates were slammed shut and tho train began to move. Panting violently, and watching tho departing train for a moment, he finally sought to elicit a little sympathy or comfort from a Ger man standing by, saya Harper’s Weekly. Assuming an air of in difference, he remarked good-nat uredly, “I didn’t quite make it.’’ “Make vott” inquired the Ger man, who, apparently, bad not no ticed anything unusual. “That train.” “ Vy dit you vant to make it ven it vas alretty made!” (‘No, I mean I -was to lste to got aboard.” , “Vot for you vant a board!” “No not that; I wanted to take- that train.” How coot you took it ven so many hat it alretty!” ‘‘No, no, no,” (exoitcdly); “I mean I wanted to ride on that train, but didn’t get here soon enough.” Just then the German’s train pulled up to the station, and as he stepped through the gate he was heard to reply: “Dot vas too bed; but how vas it any of my tarn pirn ess!” of SALE AT THE 10 CERT STORE 70 PLANT AVE.
