The Rusher.
“Does the man rush?” “Yes, lie is a rusher." “Why does he hurry along the street in that* fashion ? Perhaps his house is afire?” “Perhaps he never had one. That man is a lawyer who possibly makes $lO a week. When he leaves his office he puts up a sign, ‘ Back in three minutes; please wait!’” “But whv does he rush ?” “To make people think he is carrying the Supreme Court under his hat.” “Wouldn’t come of his creditors tackle him on the street if he didn’t put on so much steam ?” “K’rect, my boy! You might guess a thousand times and not hit the nail any closer 1” —M Quad.
