- I know just what you mean, madam. And yet, do you know that some of our customers like it for the very thing you object to. We've sold quite a few especially to ladies.
- Really?
- Yes, madam.

- That's a bargain! That's a real bargain!

- Good morning, madam. It's a lovely box, isn't it?

- Oh, yes. It's a candy box, isn't it?

- Yes, madam, a candy box and I should say, a very unusual one. May I open it for you?

- Oh, yes, madam. That's Ochi Tchornya. It's a very popular classic.

- Oh, no, that would never do. Where do people get ideas like that? Can you imagine, every time you take a piece of candy you have to listen to that song?

- No, I couldn't buy a thing like that. It's really too silly. No.

- I know just what you mean, madam. And yet, do you know that some of our customers like it for the very thing you object to. We've sold quite a few especially to ladies.

- Really?

- Yes, madam.

- There's no denying that we all have a weakness for candy. And when I say weakness I don't mean to say anything against candy. Oh, no. I only mean that sometimes we are inclined to overdo it a little.

- I suppose so.

- For instance, madam, have you any idea how many pieces of candy you eat a day?

- No, I never gave it a thought.

- That's just it.

- We pick up a piece of candy absent-mindedly, then we take another piece. Before we know it, we've gained a couple of pounds.

- And that's when our troubles begin. Massages, electric cabinets.

- Oh, don't I know it.

- Now, this little box makes you candy-conscious. That's what Matuschek and Company designed it for.
