If her husband were to die, she would have money enough left now to buy a foreign duke or count or some such title as that at the latest quotations. Now what is my lesson in that incident? IF HER HUSBAND WERE TO DIE SHE WOULD HAVE ENOUGH MONEY LEFT NOW TO BUY A FOREIGN DUKE OR COUNT OR SOME OTHER SUCH TITLE THAT IS AT THE LATEST QUOTATIONS NOW WHAT SORT OF LESSON IN THAT INCIDENT
u that is going to make a million of dollars because you are here to-night; but it is not my fault, it is yours. I say that sincerely. What is the use of my talking if people never do what I advise them to do? When her husband ridiculed her, she made up her mind she would make a better collar-button, and when a woman makes up her mind “she will,” and does not say anything about it, she does it. It was that New England woman who invented the snap button which you can find anywhere now. It was first a collar-button with a spring cap attached to the outer side. Any of you who wear modern waterproofs know the button that simply pushes together, and when you unbutton it you simply pull it apart. That is the button to which I refer, and which she invented. She afterward invented several other buttons, and then invested in more, and then was taken into partnership with great factories. Now that woman goes over the sea every summer in her private steamship--yes, and takes her husband with her! S ONE IN TEN OF YOU THAT IS GOING TO MAKE A MILLION DOLLARS BECAUSE YOU ARE HERE TO NIGHT BUT THAT IS NOT MY FAULT IT IS YOURS I SAY THAT SINCERELY WHAT IS THE USE OF MY TALKING IF PEOPLE NEVER DO IT WHEN I ADVISE THEM TO DO WHEN HER HUSBAND RIDICULED HER SHE MADE UP HER MIND THAT SHE WOULD MAKE A BETTER COLLAR BUTTON AND WHEN A WOMAN MAKES UP HER MINDS SHE WILL AND DOES NOT SAY ANYTHING ABOUT IT SHE DOES IT IT WAS THAT NEW ENGLAND WOMAN WHO INVENTED THE SNAP BUTTON WHICH YOU CAN FIND ANYWHERE NOW IT WAS FIRST A COLLAR BUTTON WITH A SPRING CAP ATTACHED TO THE OUTER SIDE ANY OF YOU WHO WEAR MODERN WATERPROOPS KNOW THAT BUTTON SIMPLY PUSS TOGETHER AND WHEN YOU UNBUTTON IT YOU SIMPLY PULL IT APART THAT IS THE BUTTON TO WHICH I REFER AND WHICH SHE INVENTED SHE AFTERWARD INVENTED SEVERAL OTHER BUTTONS AND THEN INVESTED IT MORE AND THEN SHE WAS TAKEN INTO PARTNERSHIP WITH GREAT FACTORIES NOW THAT WOMAN GOES OVER THE SEA EVERY SUMMER IN HER PRIVATE STEAMSHIP YES AND TAKES HER HUSBAND WITH HER
