Down in a certain town the other day a man went into a store u bu a tube. He saw the kind tiv wanted and asked the price. It was $3.20, the dealer said. "Good gracious," said the man, "I can get the same thing from a mail order house for $2.82.'' "That's less than it costs mc," said , the dealer, "but I'll sell it on the j;same terms as the mailorder house just the same." "All right," said the cusromLr. "You can send it along and cnarge l to my account.'' "Not on your life," the dealer re plied. "No charge accounts. You can't do business with the mail-order house that way. Fork over the cash." The customer handed over the cash. Now two cents for postage and five cents for money order." "What- Certainly you have to send a let ter and a money order to the mail order house, you know The customer, inwardly raving, kept to his agreement and paid the seven cents. "Nov,- thirty-five cents expressage." "Well, I'll be " he said, but paid it saying: "Now hand me that tube and I'll take it home for myself and be rid of this foolery." Hand it to you? Where do vou think you are? You're not in Chi cago, and you'll have to wait a week for that tube." Whereupon he placed the tube on the shelf and put the money in his cash drawer. "That makes $3.26," he said. "It has cost you six cents more and tak en you a week longer to get it than if you had paid my price in the first place."
