Excerpt from The Making of a Merchant: And Other Papers
It was a proud moment for me when I went into Mr. Leiter's private oflice and gave an account of my week in the prairie town collecting a bad debt. That trip had a strong and direct influence in my advancement. It taught me a lesson, and if it may do as much for any young man of to-day its narration is justified.

Excerpt from The Making of a Merchant: And Other Papers
I was not making trains, and frankly told the storekeeper that I had come to stay until I could go away with the firm's money in my pocket. When he grasped the situation, he disclosed all his private business affairs to me, and I found he owned the local grain elevator, the hay scales and other outside deals. Then I secured from him an option on these, went to other men in the town and disposed of them. This reduced his account by several hundred dollars.
