- 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.
- Every time you open it, this little tinkling song is a message to you. Too much candy, now be careful.
- How much is it?
- $5.50, reduced from $6.95. It's a real bargain.
- I'll take it.
- Thank you, madam.
- Well, what do you say now?
- I think people who like to smoke candy and listen to cigarettes will love it.
