Square Dealer

When Chapman ChiGg decided to
run q mart of trade, his actions all
were guided by rules of highest grade
He said, Nov, by our lady, and by
my halidome, I'll use no methods
shady to bring the bacon home. The
truth shall be my motto. and on the
truth I'll dwell, concerning prune or
auto, or anything l sell. I'd have all
men contented who spend their coin
with me, and just as represented
things must forever be. If haply |
go busted upon some bitter day. be-
cause in truth l trusted. then let 1t
be that way. Far better train with
paupers than be a merchant prince
who wins by telling whoppers which
make all good men vince" At first
his trade went slowly; men could not
quite get wise to one so pure and holy;
he lodged all sorts of lies. He'd say,
''Those watermelons | cannot recon-
mend, and only goddess felons would
sell them to a friend. 'Tis true, they
look delicious, but they are sour in
side. and it were vile and vicious to
point to them with pride. Those
squashes have been lying too long
about the store; they are not fit for
frying or toasting any more. Those
hand-me downs are cotton, though
they might pass as wool; the warp
and woof are rotten. of Shoddy they
are full" Then we would look with
wonder upon this dauntless man. who
turned our rubles under, to follow up
his plan. But when he recommended
some goods he had for sale all argu-
ment was ended, we banked upon his
tale. So as the years went spinning
to where the years go down, old Chip
man kept on winning the finest trade
in town. There came flamboyant
dealers to take his trade away. Mum
chausen gifted spielers, who lasted for
q day, Ola Chigg goes on forever, as
one ordained to serve; he's found the
truth more clever than any modern
curve. WALT MASON.
