that he was the lucky holder of one,

goods that he was assisting to unpack.
"Well, Mr.. Schmidt, is there any
danger of this suddenly acquired
wealth turning your head?"
"No, sir. 1t might have made fool
of me If it had happened when l was
a good deal younger than l am now.
You see that l am using this money
to increase my business, and the lucky
turn was not only great help to me,
but it is help to this community, in
that it enables me to buy goods lower
than before, by paying cash, and in
this way it helps other people, for ]
