THOSE people who are importuned
by irresponsible people to go into
mining schemes under the assurance
that they are being let in ON the
ground floor should not forget that
there is a cellar. A story is told of
Boston merchant years ago who,
after losing most of his fortune in
stock speculation, was induced to go
into a mining scheme He was told,
like pany another, chat he was being
let in ON the ground floor. He lisped
a little, and this is the way he re-
lated the experiment: Il went into
thith scheme with the balanth of my
money, thome twenty thouthanth
dollars; but after they had got my
money, l found thome other fellaths
in the cellar, and they didn't leave a
cent for the poor devils who had been
let in on the ground floor But the
mining bithness is the greateth bith-
ness in the world. l am now in the
thub cellar, and we're thelling the
stock for five dollars share; the
president gets three and get two"
