We Build and Sell

Firms Combined,
LADIE i S AND GENTLEMEN:
, I am going to try and bring to your attention the subject of pro­
viding an income for your old age (but more especially for providing
for your children).
I am the father of eleven children, and when I started out I made
UP my mind to quit working at fifty, and every time the stork perched
°n my fence, I said, “ Well, I’ll have to increase my income”— and I did.
And when I reached the fifty mark, I was just beginning to like my
j°b, and I am still in the harness. As I said before, I had to increase
my income every time the stork paid me a visit. Well, I just put out
a few more scales to operate and with the surplus earnings I built more
scales, with the result that today I own the largest coin operated scale
Plant in the world. And I build and sell more coin operated Springless
Scales than all other plants combined.
But the greatest pleasure I get out o f my success is the fact that
five of my sons are in the business with me and the prospects are that
the business I started nearly 50 years ago will continue another 50
years or more.
Now then, take my advice, start with one or more W ATLING
Springless Scales and put the surplus back into the business until you
nave a hundred or more scales—but don’t forget the stork!
Yours truly,
THOS. WATLING, Himself.
