The Little Things.

The little things Of business
count. Now take it the other
day. We got hold of some po.
tatoes. They got slightly FROST
bitten and it gave them a sweet
taste. One of the first buyers of
these potatoes told US they were
slightly frozen. We thanked her
for the information and satisfied
her as to her purchase.
Once. in. awhile we get stuck"
in buying.
Now, we didn't continue sell.
ing those potatoes as perfectly
sound, although not one out of a
dozen would have complained
about them.
1t wouldn't have been fair and
square.
There is no use in passing a
bad penny along.
We told the truth about those
potatoes and sold them at ''frost
ed" prices. And at frosted
prices l could have sold whole
carload of them.
That's our way of doing bust
ness. 1t might lose on frosted
frosted potatoes, but it gains II
the long run.
If things are not what they
seem, tell US about them, an d w
will make it right.
