July and Au gust aro usually dull, but not so with us. Our entire force of six sales-people aro usually kept on the jump from oponing and closing. The business is gradually beginning to ruu as soomth aad even as a machine. The steam is gradually hoing turnod on and the spood at tained is very gratifying indeed, indioating a business of $40,000 por annum. That's a nice little businoss, it's truo, but we have our stakes sot for $100,000 per annum, and wo give our saloB just six months to renou that point-and wo do not oxpoct ono dime's moro of trade tbau we deserve. Our system of running this business prevents errors, takes caro of tho interests of both tho public and ourselves. Our purpose is to make ita plea sure for you to trado with us. Now, it is very clear, tho moro goods we sell tho smaller tho margin of profits wo can work on. That is tho principle we purposo to work on in building up this businoss. "You watch ns!" Wo expoot lo let you know how noar we como to the $100, 000 per annum. Tho best goods for the loast money, speed; ..ocuracy, politeness are the foundation stones.
