Advertisers are devisible into
three classes workers, shirkers and
jerkers. The shirkers have no faith
in printers whatever, and believe
that business should come to them
without asking. 1t doesn't come.
The jerkers run their advertising
entirely by a liver thermometer.
So long as the said organ performs
its daily functions in due and reg
ular form, they believe in it and do
some advertising, but when their
liver is out of gear they curse
paper and printers ink until their
tongues are covered with warts.
But the workers! Sick or well, alive
or dead, rich or poor, idle or busy,
they keep everlastingly at it. Blessed
be their precious bones! Their trolly
never slips.
