valuable on its account than for agri-
cultural purposes, is mineral with

Two Pointed Questions Answered.

What Is the use of making a better
article than your competitor if you can
not get better price for it2
Ans AS there is no difference in
the price the public will buy only the
better, so that while our profits may
be smaller on single sale they will
be much greater in the aggregate.
How can you get the public to know
your make is the best?
If both articles are brought promi-
nently before the public both are Ger
tain to be tried and the public will
very quickly pass judgment on them
and use only the better one.

INTELLIGENT GEESE.
How New England 0ander At

1t r:ust have been in the l0s that my
great uncle, Charles N. was graduated

Communication was not so rapid then as

were able TO progress. TO facilitate this
several would in the summer time travel
from place to place, holding what they
called institutes" to which III who taught
in the ncighhoriuE country would flock t"
receive or disseminate new IDEAS, and 10
discuss methods of study.
My uncle ana friend of his had started
on a tour of this ldnd, and on Saturday ar
rived at a town where they were 20 hold
an institute" the following Monday
Sunday afternoon they took stroll in the
outskirts Of the town, on the banks of q
stream, and were engaged In deep CONVEX
sat!on when my unClcs friend cSpted a
flock Of geese approaching in solemn pro
ceSsion. Moved by n sudden impulse, he
took off his hat made a low bow and, adj
dressing the geese, said: "Allow me 20 in

The geese appeared to listen attcntiyeiy 10
