ia that grief is lransitory and there
ia no reason why It should not be
made as inexp5nsiyea as possible.
At first the new venture dragged some
but now he reports frequent calls for the
use Of his stock. II is a growing industry
and he thinks there is money in IL
therefore he has invested in supply o.
mourning goods to suit all kinds Of
customers and expects in a few months tt
have the business established on paying
