Many people wanted to buy it and the man’s young assistant moved quickly through the crowd collecting money and handing out bottles of the cure.
Then, when he had a bid crowd, the man stood up, held up a very small bottle and said, “And now, ladies and gentleman, I am not going to charge you a hundred dollars a bottle for this wonderful medicine. I am not going to charge you fifty dollars a bottle. I am not going to charge you twenty-five dollars a bottle. Now, ladies and gentleman.
