Tennyson could take a worthless sheet of paper, write a poem on and make it wortn $65,000. THAT'S GENIUS.
Yanderbilt can write a few words on a sheet of paper and make it worth $5,000,000. THAT'S CAPITAL.
The United States can take an ounce and a quarter otgold, stamp upon it an "Eagle Bird" and make it worth $20. THAT'S MONEY.
A mechanic can take material worth $o and make it into watch springs worth $1,000. THAT'S SKILL.
A merchant can take an article worth $1 and sell it for $1.50. THAT'S BUSINESS.
Some people will go to Indianapolis to buy goods when they can save money by trading at home. THAT'S FOOLISHNESS.
A laborer works ten hours a day for $3 per day. THAT'S LABOR.
The writer of this could write a check for $800,000, but it wouldn't be worth anything. THAT'S ROUGH.
But when we sell you dolls childreus sets of dishes, china, glassware, lamps and fancy baskets below all competition at home or abroad, and have the best line to select from, THAT'S REALITY.
