would only be a question of time when
the people find they can not trust to
your honesty no longer they will look
for another place to do their trading.
The old maxim, Honesty is the best
policy always holds good. In case a
customer buys a pair OF shoddy shoes
from you, and the customer returns the
same, always give that customer an
other pair of shoes and return the shod-
dy ones to the manufacturer, who will
make good such failures.
"One of the most convincing trade
features of the shoe business is to get
the people interested in you and you
in them Never meet an acquaintance
on the street and bore him to buy shoes
of you, unless he suggests that he must
soon have a pair; then tell him what
you have that would be nice for him,
and ask him to call in and see them
when he gets ready to buy. Exercise
| tact and courtesy in trading with GUS
toners. It's hard to win a customer,
easy to lose one Have always a sweet
| thank you for your patronage and
| a. come again on the end of your
tongue, whether you have been able to
sell or not.

ciples, our business has shown an in
crease in the gross proceeds each year,

September in Boston, where we re-

who had been employed in the shoe
factory as shipping clerk for several

well as the colored people the fact that
shoes can be bought from a Negro
concern, is a new feature. There are
