 now I have a nice business built on the solid foundation of honesty and fair 

 dealings. I surely appreciate this for it is only thru your help that my busi- 

 ness can succeed and grow. Your success is my success and it is just as much 

 to my interest as to my customers interest to see that you get nothing but
