I told ofe man in New Jersey of whom it was
said that he would bite at grain of coffee infiwo
to make weight. '3
A friend of mine living in that state. takes offence
at my going so far; from home for my illustration!
, and tells me."that’s not half so bad as the Yankee
that spigin the sugar to make full weight, or the
Yankee miller that always kept the cat on his
flour scales, or the Yankee that always kept his
thumb in the measure when he drew his mo-
losses."
If you feel assured that the merchant who supplies
your wantegivee you full value for your money,
not alone weight, but '
man; it will pay you.
