<h2>THE TWO BUSINESS MEN</h2>
<h3>BY CAROLYN WELLS</h3>
<p>Once on a Time two Business Men were Each Confronted with what seemed to
be a Fine Chance to Make Money.</p>
<p>One Man, being of a Cautious and Prudent Nature, said: "I will not Take
Hold of this Matter until I have Carefully Examined it in All its
Aspects and Inquired into All its Details."</p>
<p>While he was thus Occupied in a thorough Investigation he Lost his
Chance of becoming a Partner in the Project, and as It proved to be a
Booming Success, he was Much Chagrined.</p>
<p>The Other Man, when he saw a Golden Opportunity Looming Up Before him,
Embraced it at once, without a Preliminary Question or Doubt.</p>
<p>But alas! after he had Invested all his Fortune in it, the Scheme proved
to be Worthless, and he Lost all his Money.</p>
<h3>MORALS:</h3>
<p>This Fable teaches that you should Strike While the Iron is Hot, and
Look Before you Leap.<span class='pagenum'><SPAN name="Page_584" id="Page_584"></SPAN></span></p>
