Robert Kemp Philp
909
xiv.
He
holds
it
as
a
maxim
that
he
whose
credit
is
suspected
is
not
one
to
be
trusted.
xv.
He
is
constantly
examining
his
books,
and
sees
through
all
his
affairs
as
far
as
care
and
attention
will
enable
him.
xvi.
He
balances
regularly
at
stated
times,
and
then
makes
out
and
transmits
all
his
accounts
current
to
his
customers,
both
at
home
and
abroad.
xvii.
He
avoids
as
much
as
possible
all
sorts
of
accommodation
in
money
matters,
and
lawsuits
where
there
is
the
least
hazard.
xviii.
He
is
economical
in
his
expenditure,
always
living
within
his
income.
xix.
He
keeps
a
memorandum-book
in
his
pocket,
in
which
he
notes
every
particular
relative
to
appointments,
addresses,
and
petty
cash
matters.
xx.
He
is
cautious
how
he
becomes
security
for
any
person;
and
is
generous
when
urged
by
motives
of
humanity.
Let
a
man
act
strictly
to
these
habits--ever
remembering
that
he
hath
no
profits
by
his
pains
whom
Providence
doth
not
prosper--and
success
will
attend
his
efforts.

Taking
a
Shop
or
Place
of
Business.
If
you
are
about
to
take
a
place
of
business,
you
will
do
well
to
consider
the
following
remarks:
2599.
Small
Capitalists.
Let
us
take
the
case
of
a
person
who
has
no
intimate
knowledge
of
any
particular
trade,
but
having
a
very
small
capital,
is
about
to
embark
it
in
the
exchange
of
commodities
for
cash,
in
order
to
obtain
an
honest
livelihood
thereby.
It
is
clear,
that
unless
such
a
person
starts
with
proper
precaution
and
judgment,
the
capital
will
be
expended
without
adequate
results;
rent
and
taxes
will
accumulate,
the
stock
will
lie
dead
or
become
deteriorated,
and
loss
and
ruin
must
follow.
For
the
last
absorption
acting
upon
a
small
capital
will
soon
dry
up
its
source;
and
we
need
not
picture
the
trouble
that
will
arise
when
the
mainspring
of
a
tradesman's
success
abides
by
him
no
more.
