Two Pointed Questions Answered

What is the use of making q better
article than your competitor If you
cannot get better price for it?
Ans.-As there is no difference In
the price the public will buy only the
better, 80 that while our profits may
be smaller on a single sale they will be
much greater in the aggregate.
How can you get the public to know
your. make is the best?
If both articles are brought promin-
emily before the public both are GER
tain to be tried and the public will
very quickly pass judgement on them
and use only the better one.
