Being shown the article and informed that the price was 51.15, he said, “Why, I can get that same kind of an ax from a mail order house for ninety cents.” “Very well,” said the hardware man, “I will give it to you for the same price provided you will do the same with me as you will do with the mailorder house.” “All right,” replied the customer, as he handed over a dollar bill, the merchant giving him back ten cents in change. “Now,” said the hardware man, “I want twentyfive cents more to pay express charges,” which the purchaser gave him. “How much did your ax cost you?” “One dollar and fifteen cents,” the man answered. “Very good. Now give me five cents more for money order fees and postage,” which the purchaser had to hand over. “Now, how much did your ax cost you?” “One dollar and twenty cents," said the customer. “Not so cheap, after all.” said the merchtant, whereupon he picked up the ax, tossed it back on the shelf and told the customer to cal! for it in ten days, as that was as soon as he could get it if he had ordered it from the mail order house.
