I told of a man "in New Jersey of whom it was
said that he would ‘bite a grain of coffee in two
to make Weight.
A friend of mine living in that state, takes offence
at my going so far from home for my illustrations
and tells me "that's not half so bad as the Yankee
that spit in the sugar to make full weight. or the
,, Yankee miller that always kept the cat on his
dour scales. or the Yankee that always kept his
thumb in the measure when he drew his mo-
lasses."
if you feel assured that the merchant who supplies
your wants gives you full value for your money,
not alone weight, but quality. too, stick 'to that
man; it will pay you. ‘
