WISE TALK S
By the "Office Boy

Most people want what they
want, until they get it, and then
they don't need it. In Tennessee
a miserable hermit recently
starved to death, though in his
house was found money enough
and more to keep him in opu-
lence for many year. In Pitts
burg a young promoter. scarcely
s, 80, has been sent to an asylum,
a physical and mental wreck. re-
sulting from his strenuous efforts
to accumulate too many dollars.
His check is good for something
like three millions of them, but
his head is good for nothing.
Thus do the pendulums that
count out our little lives DER
swing themselves. To a man in
madhouse or a mailman in his.
own house, pile of gold and a
pile of sand are equally value
less. Gold means the power to
enjoy within a certain limit only.
Beyond that limit it means the
power to Cypress and the one
chiefly oppressed is the posses;sor.
The Tennessee hermit is not the
first nor will be the last to starve
in the midst of plenty and not
all mad money seekers are in
Warehouses;. Look around you.
is it worth the price? The man
who paves his path with gold
and naught else is greasing the
incline to the dump heap. There
is something more in life than
the desire to get. l believe the
desire to give a much sweeter
passion. A gentleman calling on
the Old Man the other day said,
81 am one of your customers,
Mr.. Sherwood. You folks all
sell goods at about the same
price, anyway. Why" he said.
there's a Crofut & Knapp hat l
just bought from -- for "a,
and | believe it is worth So.
The Old Man rang for one OF the
hat men, holding up the hat SO
that the hat man could see 1t,
he said, "Have you this hat?"
Eyes" replied the hat man.
"Send me one" He did so.
"Now," said he to the man,
"here's the same identical hat.
1t is marked in plain figures, So,
and we are satisfied with our
profit at that price. l do not DO
this to win you over. | merely
want to show you you know
nothing about values, and that
Won are not fair when you say
our prices are as high as others
for the same quality of goods
We have built our great business
by giving values. We are not
-rich-quick merchants. We
believe in building slowly but
building well. We are not mon
ey worshipers. We believe in
honest business methods. No
discounts. No price fooiing.

eENTRY RRoTHERs, CIRCus.

Gentry Bros shows concluded their en-
gagement in Salt Lake last night. after
having done the biggest business in the
history Of their many visits to this city.
Tt was with some misgiYing that the
shows came TO this city. Three other
canvas attractions preceded them But
the patronage bestowed upon them dem
onstrates clearly that Gentry Bros shows
occupy q niche which no other institu-
ton Of the kind can fill.
The attendance Monday was most flat
teTiug. From that the Wisacres thought
they could estimate the business to be
done yesterday However, they failed TO
count upon the satisfied missionaries VINO
went out to speak well of the show. That
form of advertising is considered by
shOWmen to be the best in the world. OF
the thousands who saw the show none
were turned away disappointed.
II was early this morning that the last
wagon was loaded on Gentry Bros train
ana the caravan moved toward Malad.
