The sayings of Uncle Rufus : he dreams that he is William H. Vanderbilt--his virtuous advice to lady contemplating speculation in Wall Street--his great metropolitan and rural mammary pipe line--he discovers stock that the more it is watered the greater the dividends--he wants Roscoe Conkling for a partner--an English gentleman wants him to sell the great eastern--his story of Maraschino Jones and Washington McCorkindale--his wonderful picture gallery--his moral-pointed stories--he discovers a scheme for making millions happy--he issues a prospectus for a railroad that runs down hill both ways.
