good one is told on a western jobber oi
tailor trimmings who. although a sharp
shrewd business man, could not be consid
cred away up IN literature Not long sines
he found himself stuck on a certain grade
OF sleeve Innings costing him "a cents. he
started out his men with instructions tc
move them at cost or less than cost. but "a
move them In Missouri one Of the sales
men had a customer that he thought could
use the lot, and "a fairy tale was sung in bis
ear about the value and beauty Of these
goods He at first endeavored to get cost
for them, but by slow and easy graduation
he gradually fell in price until 20 cents
was reached. After much hesitation the
buyer informed him that he would take the
lot if he would date the bill July I, being
about eight months ahead He was met
with point blank refusal, but after much
urging the salesman agreed to submit the
offer to his employer. In sending In the
order he wrote at the bottom; This man
reminds me of Josh Billings, who, wheL
hard pressed by a creditor for his pay, and
the creditor seeing no immediate prospect
Of getting it, made him an offer to throw
off one-half in consideration Of the immedi-
ate payment to which Josh replied that he
made it point never to allow a man 70
outdo him in generosity, and he would
throw off the other half"
Upon receiving the order the old man
read the postscript and was heard in an ex-
cited voice to call to his boekks,Ser; ''g'lit4,
Fritz, haf we an account on our books init
a man called Josh Billings2 II so, draw on
him at once for all he owes US and write
him we trows off nottings and wants the
whole amount, for dis vas not a generosity
house." When the salesman returned home,
the bookkeeper related theaffair with great
glee but at the same time cautioned him
against any further postscripts Of a literary
