extremes to which the credit sys-;
tern is carried, but none more so
than the merchant, who is com-,
pelled by circumstances over
which he has no control to credit
people whom he does not know.
As a rule, credit is granted : ac
cording to ability to pay, and no
one can reasonably expect a mer
chant to credit out his goods
without some assurance, that he
will receive pay therefor. xIf
you can, it is best to pay as you
go; be just to pay as you go; but
if you should ask for credit, be
just to the extent of satisfying
the merchant that you pay your
debts. Ex.
