I’M GOING TO
RAISE A ROW!
There’s a store on White
hall street that is feeding
and clothing a whole
bunch of salesmen, lam
one against many, but I’m
going right down there
and face them all. I am
ashamed of the suit I have
on. They sold it to me. 1
asked for a good one, I
paid for a good one.
When they asked me
$25 for it I said: “I don’t
want to pay a month’s
rent for you.” “A month’s
rent,’’ said he; “why $25
will pay about two min
utes’ expense of this store.” Whew!
Why didn't I take the hint? Billings told me
to go to the Globe, says I could save $10.00.
That’s about right, the usual $25 suit about
town is just $15 here. What’s the answer?
