Страница 63 - ... tis his business to be ill used and resent nothing; and so must answer as obligingly to those that give him an hour or two's trouble and buy nothing, as he does to those- who in half the time lay out ten or twenty pounds. The case is plain, and if some do give him trouble and do not buy, others make amends and do buy; and as for the trouble, 'tis the business of the shop.

Страница 62 - A tradesman behind his counter must have no flesh and blood about him, no passions, no resentment ; he must never be angry, no, not so much as seem to be so, if a customer tumbles him five hundred pounds...
Страница 21 - If any man were to ask me, which would be supposed to be a perfect style, or language, I would answer, that in which a man speaking to five hundred people, of all common and various capacities, idiots or lunatics excepted, should be understood by them all...
