hearsed his money trouble thuswise:
‘In a I’.roadway ear 1 saw It — the
dime that was hoodooed. Il lay upon
the floor of the car unclaimed and
lonesome. No one else seemed to care
to take it in and give it a welcome, so
I did. lint even as 1 reached for the
lilt of silver the trouble drama opened.
My suspenders snapped with the strain
—for, as you enn see, I'm not built on
the sunken garden plan as regards

to gather the frayed ends of the busted
surcingle, si ill feeling for the chunk of
white metal with flic other hand. My
watch, not to be shoved out of the
iirania without a chance lo do Its little
part, dropped out of my pocket, tnait-
; a deckled hit. The crystal broke
into 7,8(10 pieces, not counting the mu*

works mingled with the dirt ami shat
tered glass, and tin' case tripped gayly
into a corner, .lust to show it was

dollar bounced out of my waistcoat

with anything but the giggle gag. And
I couldn't vocalize my feelings because
there were ladies present. Holding

HIS LEGAL AUTHORITY.
It Seemed to Fit the Cose, and Jooy

Thorp was consternation among tho
young folk. The ‘•music" for tho danc

considerable learning, but here In* had

hasty meeting and appointed a eom-
mittee to wait upon Spuin' Nugent to
secure tin* release of the "music" if
possible. The squire was hearing
Joey's case when the committee ar
rived. The spokesman respectfully ex
pi,•titled tin* absolute necessity of Joey's
presence at the picnic that day.
"That's a good soul, squire. I'avp me

" ‘See them books?’ he said.
" ‘Yes,’ said the visitor.

"Tho millionaire chuckled proudly.
