Wise Talks by the Office Boy I 4 You can take my word for it whatever a fellow hopes to be, he will be,unless he gets on the wrong car. Whenever I hear one those worldly wise chaps using that expression, 4,Wheredo I set off?" I always feel like edging up and saying, "Put him off at Plattsmouth because he will then know just here he is going to get eff and we will all know where he is getting off. We know that he will get eff better than he expected for the simple reason that we are primed to the muzzle with new goods and we don't care how soon the people know it. Times are improving, business is improving, people are imtroving, everything is improving except the weather' and you can't improve that because it isn't made to be bossed.
