Keeping Up Appearances.

Excited man (to reporter)—Now, in writing up story of the burglary of my house, you must say that they overlooked $4,000 in the cupboard. Reporter (incredulously)—Really? Excited Man—Yes. You see, I don’t want the public to know that they could go through my house and only find $32 worth of silver and stuff worth stealing. —Boston Herald.
