THE PKiri"'UTTER
Tell ax> act is noilips
Selling costs are what they seem
And the man who cuts for orders
Gets the lion's share of cream.
If you strive to build a business,
Do not be a human sieve—
Letting leak your needed profit,
I Trusting luck will let you live.
Lives of dead ones all remind us
What it means to sell on guess.
Their departure makes us keener
To sell right and not "for less."
For no trade can long be loyal
To a man who's all regrets,
Can't deliver—who's just living
On the interest of his debts.
