For instance, one man 5 makes a fortune out of a simple thing; immediately hundreds of others try it. This is human nature. While it is gratifying to be the “ï¬rst man †to bring out an idea, the great mass must be content to follow their ‘leaders. There‘is-one-Fine that is al-t ways original, however, and that is’ the business of Bradley-Gametson 00., Limited, of Brantfm‘d, Ont, be- cause they continually bring out pub- lications-to suit the times and seasons, l thus their agents are kept steadily at: it and make big money. In fact, no other occupation is more honorable, healthful, luerati-ve, or offers half as many opportunities rfer :promotion.‘ It is a life school.
