Printing the Pump

A boy was sent after d pail oil
water, says an exchange. It was
necessary to prime the pump each
time and give a dozen or more
strokes at the handle to start the
water He poured in the printing
and pumped out as much as he
poured in Then he stopped to rest
and all the printing ran down again.
After two or three hours of alternate
pumping and resting he concluded it
did not pay to pump and therefore
quit in disgust. The STORY reminds
us of the merchant who advertised a
few weeks, then stopped a while and
allowed the people to forget him and
his business before he advertised
again, and concluded it did not pay
to advertise The fact is that the
pump had lost its printing while he
rested Exchange.
