TWO POINTED QUESTIONS AN
SEVERED.

What is the use Of making a better
article than your competitor if you can
not get better price for it?
Ans.-As there is 10 difference in the
price the public will buy only the bette
so that while our profits may be small
er on n single sale they viii be much
greater in the aggregate.
How can you get the public to know
your make is the best?
Ii both articles are brought prominent
~ before the public both are certain to
be tried and the public will very quick
~ pass judgment ON them and use only
the better one.

EDIS0N'S RELIGION.

This Is what Thomas Edison said In
reply to a question addressed him by an
agnostic.
Why, after years OF watching the
processes OF nature. | can no more
doubt the existence OF an Intelligence
that Is running things than do OF the
existence Of myself, Take, for example.
the substance water that forms the
crystal known as Ice. Now. there are
hundreds Of combinations that form
crystals, and every one OF them save
that OF Ice sinks in water. Ice, say,
doesn't And Il Is rather lucky for us
mortals. for II Il had done so we would
all be dead, Why Simply because II
Ice sank TO the bottom Of rivers. lakes
and oceans as fast as IL froze, those
places would be- frozen up, and there
would be no water left. That Is only
one example out OF thousands that to
me prove beyond the possibility OF a
doubt that some vast Intelligence Is
governing this and other planets"
