"He wouldn't have come up if it hadn't been for me. I think I'd ought to have a commission."
"Oh, that's it," said the doctor. "That doesn't follow. He came up because of the circular."
"No, he didn't," said Sam. "He came up because I told him what a great doctor you was."
The doctor thought over Sam's proposal, and, being a sharp man, he decided that it was for his advantage to secure an alliance with him.
"You are right," he said. "You are entitled to something."
Sam brightened up.
"Here is a quarter in addition to the ten cents I just gave you."
"Thank you, sir," said Sam, gratified.
"Shall I go down, and give away some more circulars?" he asked.
"Yes; I'll give you another hundred. Don't give them away too fast. It's of no use to give to children."
