Show The Lost Rug. A man decided to tako his furnl-turo furnl-turo out of tho storage warohouso nnd keep houso again. Tho day ho did It such a snow storm came up that ho is euro it cost him twlco as much to move as It would had tho weather been reasonable. Now this man likes rugs and tho extra oxpenso ho was put to on account of tho weather would havo bought a rug. Ho blames that snow storm a rug's worth and to him that Is a good deal. He feols ugly. In his mind tho price of a rug in a rug is a great deal bigger than tho prico of a rug In tho bank. You and I aro that way on some things. If I wero to loso tho prlco of n flno blank book I would think loss about It than if it wero n flno blank book or if 1 thought of tho money In a lino blank book. Tho poor pcflplo do not know money as money. Wo do not rospoct It as stored up energy. To lovo It and disrespect dis-respect 1 aro both orrors. Wo should learn how to look at It In an Intelligent Intelli-gent mnnnor, but whllo our personal wants excoed our flnanelal ability we will think of monoy In some dosirod object Whllo tnlking with a furnlturo dealer deal-er in Buffalo I haw him shock himself by thinking what the monoy ho had spent during tho year for n certain objuct would moan if represented by furniture. Can you see value whether in money, old iron or diamonds? It may bo dangerous for us to look at monoy through somo special object. |
