That's what we all are looking for.
And as the old saying goes, Nothing
succeeds like success" People like
to trade where they feel the atmos-
phere of prosperity. They know that
a successful store is satisfied with
small profits on each transaction be-
cause such a store has a big volume of
trade, and the aggregate is satisfac-
tory. That is why the people enjoy
dealing at a prosperous store like
Louis Browns confectionery.
