HE BTYS CANADIAN NOyEY.
From The Buffalo Express.


All through that part of the country (Northern
Ohio) there is discount of 20 cents on every
Canadian dollar OF course. Canadian money Is not
as much In circulation is the legal tender of the
United States but there was enough for his pur-
pose A man advertised In all surrounding coun-
try towns that he would redeem Canadian money
for 90 cents on the dollar Ii some time before
he had any results from this advertising. II was
like the man who stood on London Bridge az mid
night and offered TO give away sovereigns. People
laughed at him The farmers were shy They
thought Il was a swindling game OF some kind and
left him severely alone one day man came IN
with $40 Canadian money. IL was OF all shapes and
sizes from the hve-ceni piece that looks like a
dime to a dollar bill drawn on the Bank or Montre-
al II ne had spent II he could have secured s.
worth OF goods for H. My man gave him nine big
silver dollars I'm United States money for H. Before
the week out he had exchanged United states
dollars for $3.50 worth of Canada money. This
would give him a profit OF SIS wherever Canada
money Is as good as our From that time
the business gradually increased, until to-day he
averages about $50 week. Instead OF having the
farmers come to him he goes 10 them and buys their
accumulated savings OF Canada coin. They are all
his customers and know him well In the nve years
they have done business together Are you NOT
afraid OF competition In your business In case
II becomes generally known? l asked. NO
