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. Have you tried
our Plattsmouth brand of M & J coffee? Then you can't
X go wrong on.
