The other was what la known u« ri parlor story. It dealt with a down ami-outer, who made u precarious living ua a sandwich man.

One day, ua he plodded hte weary , route. Xsaw ti shining coin lying upon the sidewalk. Instantly he set Ida foot upon It, and then, stooping with n difficulty been use of his wooden w aistcoat. he rlutched ft In his eager Angora and raised It to his eyes. Then Ids heart Inside of him gave a great J throb of Joy. It was a twenty-dollar gold piece. He was wealthy beyond hia wildest ambitions. Across the street was nn excavation for u new building. He hurried thither. Standing on the edge of the digging be unbuckled the straps which bound the squares of planking to him, and, kick-1 : Ing them to pieces with a glad ex- I Ultant cry, he flung the shattered en> blems of his servitude down into the hole below. Then straightway he departed for the nearest saloon, und stalking In, a triumphant figure even In , his flaunting tatters, he slapped hta precbuiy gold’plece down upon the bar nn<l called for a drink of whisky. It was to have been the first of a b>ng and gorgeous succession of drinks of > whisky. Someone jostled him In the side. He ' turned his head io see who might be 1 interrupting his happy dreams, and when he looked back ngnln his double eagle mysteriously had vanished, and the barkeeper was motioning him to depart. He protested, naturally. Whereupon the barkeeper reached for the bung starter, swung It with a skill bom of long practice, and struck him squarely between the eyes. A moment Inter the ex-sandwich man found himself sprawling on the sidewalk, his happy visions gone forever. A prey to melancholy, Ailed with deep disappointment and a yet deeper sense 1 of injustice, he got upon his feet and started to limp away. N: xt dear to the saloon was n basement barber shop. From it at this instant there emerged a Bowery mission ' worker, an elderly gentleman of a ■ benevolent aspect, his pink Jowls newly scraped and his face powdered. As he climbed up the steps to the level of the sidewalk this gentleman bent over to refasten a loosened shoelace. Now. to the best of his knowledge and belief, the derelict never before find seen the missionary, but as the latter stooped, presenting before hitn nn expanse of black coat tails, the mlsI anthrope hauled off and dealt the gon- ‘ tie s’ranger n terrific kick, j With a yell of astonishment and . pain the clergyman landed ten feet ’ away. I 4‘Wliat did you mean by that T' he demanded, rubbing the seat of his ' trousers with both hands. “Why did , ' you kick me?” “Oh,” said the ex-sandwich man. in tones of an uncontrollable annoyance, (“you’re always tying your shoestring!” (Copyright by t>e Central Press Association ) Mxj Favorite Stories By IRVIN S.
