It Got Him a Drink.
Thomas A. Edison, after the recent
interview that he gave to newspaper
orrespundents on his 81st birthday, in
Florida, told a belated correspondent
a story.
“We should make our stumbling
blocks our stepping stones,” Mr. Ed
ison said—“like the- deaf druggist,
you knpw.
“A motorist .dashed into the deaf
druggists’s store and asked if he was
on the right road to the Brandy wipe.
, “ ‘Brandy. vyes,’ said the druggist.
‘No wine, but plenty of brandy. I can
see you’re all right by your looks,
sir.’ And he poured-the motorist a
stiff drink out of a big blue china jug
labeled ‘Ipecachuana.’
“ T don’t wapt. that,’ the motorist
protested. ‘I want to know if this is
the best road to the Brandy—’
“‘The best brandy? You bet.it’j*
the best.’ interrupted the druggist.
“ ‘No, no! The Brandywine!’ yelled
the motorist. ‘I want to get to the
Brandy,—’
“ ‘Thank you*1' said ^he druggist; T
don’t, care if I do,’
“And with a gratified smile he
poured a second stiff drink out of the
blue china, jar for, himself.”
