A Newman 1:“ Truma- Nothing 3 pears to us more irrational and unsee y than tedious chafl'ering in trade, yet busio ness men generally encourage the practice. For example, no merchant seems to think of asking the price he means to take for an article; and, of course, customers thus educated, never think of giving the price that is asked. The consequence is that every sale is a. contest of iiâ€" 8.1 wits, a la- borious and disagreeable struggle of cun- g ning against chiming, in the course of which truth, decency and selflrespect are outraged. This is extremely absurd, and entirely nnwvrthy rational civilizedbeings. ; Nothing whatever is gained by it; for, as 3 general rule, the max-chart and cus- tomer are pretty eVenly matched, and the only result of all this senseless bantering is, that tho sellergets the price he meant to take, and the buyer pays the price he ought to pay. The simple rule, of “ one pics, and no abatemint,” would obviate all this contention and waste of time; p‘ xcz, auu uv -u._.u._...._-, all this contentxon and waste of time; and we therefore trust that business men will see the propriety of adopting it.
