What is the use Of making a better
article than your competitor if you
cannot get a better price for it?
Ans.-As there is no difference in
the price the public will buy the bet
ter, SO that while our profits may be
smaller on a single sale they VIII be
much larger in the aggregate.
How can you get the public to know
your make is the best?
If both articles are brought promi-
nently before the public both are GER
tain to be tried and the public will
very quickly pass judgment on them
and use only the better one.
