Democratic Sentinel, Volume 7, Number 28, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 10 August 1883 — Rising Stock. [ARTICLE]

Rising Stock.

A friend of mine, who dabbles considerably in stocks, walked into a wellknown banking-house and created considerable excitement by remarking, “I got a pretty good thing when I bought that, last winter. It was at 34 then,

and to-day it stands at 95.” “Well, I should say so,” exclaimed the senior partner. “But what stock was it?” “It was a thermometer,” coolly replied my friend. It didn’t cost thejtjoys anything for lemonade that day.— Boston Times.
