pleased and satisfied If we were asked to name one way in which many people would be influenced we would suggest that the charge made by many restaurants of an ad ditional ten cents for cup of coffee

brought while thoorder is being prepared is cup of coffee and refills are available desired the meal takes on more friendly atmosphere iiianya good customer is lost lot re turnvisit by that added dime
