Duties
of
a
Shopkeeper.
He
should
cheerfully
render
his
best
labour
and
knowledge
to
serve
those
who
approach
his
counter,
and
place
confidence
in
his
transactions;
make
himself
alike
to
rich
and
poor,
but
never
resort
to
mean
subterfuge
and
deception
to
gain
approbation
and
support.
He
should
be
frugal
in
his
expenditure,
that
in
deriving
profits
from
trade,
he
may
not
trespass
unduly
upon
the
interest
of
others;
he
should
so
hold
the
balance
between
man
and
man
that
he
should
feel
nothing
to
reprove
his
conscience
when
the
day
comes
for
him
to
repose
from
his
labours
and
live
upon
the
fruits
of
his
industry.
Let
the
public
discover
such
a
man,
and
they
will
flock
around
him
for
their
own
sakes.

A
Very
Useful
Book.
A
very
useful
book,
"The
Handy
Book
of
Shopkeeping,
Shopkeeper's
Guide"
[1]
(published
at
one
shilling),
enlarges
upon
these
subjects
in
a
very
able
manner,
and
gives
most
useful
hints
to
people
in
every
dapartment
of
trade.

Early
Rising.
The
difference
between
rising
every
morning
at
six
and
eight,
in
the
course
of
forty
years,
amounts
to
29,200
hours,
or
three
years
one
hundred
and
twenty-one
days
and
sixteen
hours,
which
are
equal
to
eight
hours
a
day
for
exactly
ten
years
So
that
rising
at
six
will
be
the
same
as
if
ten
years
of
life
(a
weighty
consideration)
were
added,
wherein
we
may
command
eight
hours
every
day
for
the
cultivation
of
our
minds
and
the
despatch
of
business.
