Fly Faker.
Mrs. Harply—How did you manage to acquire such a fortune from that little pamphlet, “How to Make Dynamite ?” Mr. Sharply I used to offer the book, then pull out a foot section of two-inch gas-pipe, loaded with paper and a piece of rope in one end for a fuse, and tell them that was how a bomb looked when finished. Everybody thought it was genuine and subscribed to get rid of me.
