Show HE HAD A LOT OF BBNSB There was an old geezer and ho had a lot of sense. He started into business bus-iness on a dollar-eighty cents. The dollar for stock, and the eighty for an ad brought him throe lovely dollars in a day, by dad! Well, he bought more goods and a little more space, and ho played the system with a smile on his face. The customers flocked to his two-by-four and soon he had to bustle for a regular store. Up on the square, whore the people pass, ho gobbled up a corner that was all plate glass. He fixed the windows with the best that he had and told them all about it in a half page ad. He soon had 'em coming and he never, never quit, and ho wouldn't cut down on his ads, one jit. And lie's kept things humping in the town over since, and everybody calls him the Merchant Prince. Some say it's luck, hut that's all bunk why he was doing business when the times were punk! $ple have to purchase and the r was wise- for he knew the o get 'em was to advertise.- Exchange. |
