The store-keener or salesman who expects to do much business this year, must practice the lesson taught m the following story: "Two bull frogs found themselves in a pail of nnlk, from which they could not jump out. One of them was for giving up, and said to i the o her, 'dood-by, I sink, 1 die.' Said his mate: 4 Urate up, you duffer. Keep a jumpin" and see what turns up.' So they kept jumping up and down all night, and by morning had so churned the milk that it turned to butter, and they jumped off the butter onto dry land." This is no water and milk tale as you see by the results the butter. Applied to business, it reads like this: If you want the business of this year to beat that of last year, keep a jumpin"! Don't cry: 1 sink, I die! The business man who keeps looking for bad times will not live long enough (in business) to see good times. The man who keeps a jumpin' will see good times first.
