Good Hammer"

Twenty-nine years ago, when David
Maydole was q roadside blacksmith, at
Norwhich, New York, six carpenters
came to the village from the next county
to work upon q new church, one OF
whom, having left his hammer behind,
came to the blacksmith's to get one
made, there being none in the village
store.
"Make me a good one" said the car
penter, 'ss good one as you know
how"
"But," said the young blacksmith,
who had already considered hammers,
and had arrived at some notion of what
q hammer ought to be, and had proper
contempt for cheapness in all its forms,
perhaps you don't want to pay for as
good o one as can make.
eyes, do; want good hammer.
And so David Maydole made q good
hammer. the best one probably that
has ever been made since Tubal Cain,
and one that perfectly satisfied the car
penter. The next day the mans five
companions came, each of them wanting
Just such q hammer, and when they
were done the employer came and Or
dered two more. Next the storekeeper
of the village ordered two dozen. which
were bought by New York tool mer
chant, who left standing order for as
many such hammers as David Maydol
could make. And from that day to
this he has gone on making hammers
until now he has lis men at work. He
has never borrowed. He has never
tried to compete with others in price.
He has never reduced price because
other men had done so. His only care
has been to make a perfect hammer, to
make as many such as people wanted
and no more, and to sell them at fair
price.-Parton.
