The goods sold fetch- S —— se—— ed excellent prices, in fact, such l high figur's in some instances that ? it may be concluded that rthe custom | of paying more for auction goods than | they cost new in the stores is not going | to be changed just_ yet. It showed | too that there is either money enough in ecirculation or. that the people do not realize the proer value of mo- ney when they will squander it so recklessly in these hard times. Among the most tarcical bargains noted was 2 mirror about 24X30 which ‘vas bought for $21.50 plus 16%, and a pair cf ecard tables which fetched S4B. It was our opinion that shopkeeosers would do well to make up assortmentsof goods and hold auctions from time to time: they will ac- complish prompt sale of any "'traps” and get 50 to 100% over aad above their regular value.
