A South Chicago woman gave a new version to the stereotyped, story about the woman bargain hunter, who spends 50 cents car fare to get a 49 cent bargain, when she appeared in one of the South Chicago stores and the mer chant began taunting her about her business ability. Since then the mer chant has made up his mind that even an "old woman" who knows nothing of business methods could give him a pointer. "In the first place," she said, "I went down town because I read of bargains that were advertised, and I got them. Of course, I would have preferred stay ing in South Chicago to do my buying and when I am not looking for a bargain I buy here, for prices here are in my favor, but how am I to know when you have any bargains if you don't advertise them? When I fail to find them in the local papers, which I prefer to read before the Chicago papers, I conclude that you have no bargains and when I find them in Chicago papers. I naturally go where they are advertised. I am 'only a woman' who is not supposed to know anything about business, but it seems to me that the profits from "bargains' or from anything on which you are making a special sale would warrant the expense of an advertisement In the local papers, which we re-ad first of all, and in addition to making profits from your advertised bargains, would have a fine ad in the paper that would keep your name and place before the public. "Of course, I am only a woman, and I would not expect you to take any stock in what I say." One dollar a day, board and furnished tent at Valparaiso Chautauqua.
