Sinópse: Excerpt from Dwellers in Gotham: A Romance of New York N ow, Vaughen, as your guide, philosopher, and friend, ‘ let me give you some good advice. It is very evident that you don’t understand Gallio this, however, is only natural, as he was before your time. It is a disadvantage to be either behind or before your age. David, Israel’s favorite king, had the good sense to serve his own generation, ‘ which accounts for his general success. These Utopian men who insist upon climbing the hills of futurity and plan ning for the interests of unborn millions are exceed ingly tiresome. It is true that Solomon did not say, ‘make hay while the sun shines, ‘ but he did say, The churning of milk bringeth forth butter, ‘ which means practically the same thing. Take my advice, and churn milk. Improve the breed and condition of the cows; see that the pasturage is good; get the latest and most improved churn let butter be your objective point. The world insists upon your making butter, and the more of it you can make and market the better for yourself and all concerned.
