"There's no difficulty. You know that the natural tendency of the market is to rise." "To rise and to fall," interrupted Alzugaray. "No, only to rise." "I don't see it." "The general tendency of the market is to rise, because having to fall eighty centimos, the value of the coupon, every quarter, if the market didn't rise to offset that loss, shares would reach zero...."
'He's laid up with a coupon thumb, an' can't r-run. 'An' how about Arthur Doheny? 'I swore an oath whin I came out iv colledge I'd niver vote f'r a man that wore a made tie. 'Well, thin, let's thry Willie Boye. 'Good, says th' comity.
Truly it seems surprising, in a fortunate century when the correspondence school offers so many inexpensive educational advantages for deficient adults, that one never sees an advertisement If you bore people you can't be loved. Don't you want to be loved? Don't YOU? Then sign and mail this coupon at once. Let Dynamo Doit teach you through his famous mail course, How not to be a Bore.
The Legislature repassed the Riddleberger bill, which the creditors refused to accept, and an ingenious "coupon killer." Similar acts were passed in 1886 and 1887.
"Will some boy step up to draw the tickets from the hat?" Four or five eager volunteers scrambled over the footlights. The professor selected the largest of them. "Number six-seventy-six!" John looked eagerly at the coupon which had been handed him at the door. "Number six-seventy-six! Who has it?" Harriette, the cast-off Harriette of last year, bobbed forward. "Ah," boomed the deep voice.
Every check-room bristled with hats proclaiming defiance, and, incidentally, advertising the "Clarion." The "cut-out coupon" ran for three weeks. In one month the Stickler check-room, last to surrender, gave up the ghost, and Mr. Hotzenmuller sued the proprietor for his money back!
"No," said he, "it's worse than that." "How?" "My money is in bub-bub-bonds Spanish bub-bub-bonds." "Bonds!" repeated Harry. "Yes," groaned Russell "kik-kik-coupon bub-bub-bonds." "Coupon bonds! Why, man, what in Heaven's name are you doing with coupon bonds in this country?" "Why, they're Spanish bonds, and I was taking them out of the country to England." "Whew!" whistled Harry. "In how much?"
Here is little Switzerland disgorging its tens of thousands of honest folk, chiefly English, and rarely, to judge by their faces and talk, children of light in any eminent degree; for whom snow-peaks and glaciers and passes and lakes and chalets and sunsets and a <i>cafe complet</i>, "including honey," as the coupon says, have become prime necessities for six weeks every year.
Had they been registered, I should have been at no trouble, nor would the thief have reaped any advantage." "If coupon, they are, of course, numbered. Won't that serve as a clue, supposing an attempt is made to dispose of them?" "You touch the weak point of my position. They are numbered, and I had a list of the numbers, but that list has disappeared. It is either lost or mislaid.
"I heard Squire Duncan say so." "Were they coupon or registered?" "What difference would that make, sir?" "The first could be sold without trouble by the thief, while the last could not be disposed of without a formal transfer from the owner." "Then it would not pay to steal them?" "Just so. Luke, do you know, a strange idea has come into my head." "What is it, sir?"
