BEGINNING TO BELIEvE.-''Bubbles, ="
of the California Golden Era, gets off
the following:
/ begin to believe, nowadays, that mo-
ney makes the man, and dress the gentle
mau.
Ibegin to believe that honesty is the
best policy-to speculate with until you
have gained everybody's confidence,
then line your pockets.
begin to believe in humbugging peo
pie out of their dollars. IL is neither
stealing nor begging, and those who are
Aumbugged have themselves to blame.
Ibegin to believe that man Was not
made to enjoy life, but to keep himself
miserable in the pursuit and possession
Of riches.
begin to believe that the surest rem
edy for hard times and tight money
market is an cxSravagant expenditure
ON the part of the individua-to keep
money moving.
l begin to believe that none but
knaves are qualified't to hold Office under
the government, with the exception of a
few natural born fools and lncatics.
