The Writer of This Ad.

has four gold fish in a large glass globe. One night last week the big one started to poke and bite the others. He simply got jealous or en- vious of the others and as he was the largest he of course had the most gold, so he thought he could do as he wished But we took him out and put him in a smaller globe, and It was prison for him. Then we put him back after eight hours incar- ceration, and he has been real nice ever since. But if he had killed one of his fellow gold fish he would be killed himself; we never would have sent him to Matteawan asylum and say he was criminally insane. No, sirree, it wouldn't matter how much gold he had, he would get his just desert, and it should be the same with all the human family, gold or no gold. However, you never see human beings killing each other providing they leave intoxicating drinks severely alone and drink nothing stronger than nice tasting tea, coffee or buttermilk. Say, we often think how much more pleasant and agreeable the human race would be if they all would drink nothing stronger than tea, coffee or cocoa. By the way, we mean the quality that we sell. Of course there would be whole lot of ''cops" lose their jobs, but that would be a God-send. They, like all the rest of us, would have to work foI living then.
