Dinner For Three.

Two newsboys stopped before a fruit stand, says a writer in the Denver Post, and one of them asked the price of apples. “Five cents each,” said the stand man, pointing to one pile. “Two for 5,” indicating another. “Gotta have three for 5,” said the boy, starting away. “All right,” said the stand man, “here’s three. Gimme your nickel.” Tlie boy took the apples and paid over the nickel. He gave one to the other boy. “What are you going to do with the extra one?” asked the other. The first boy did not reply. On the next corner was a blind man seated on a stool. The boy with the extra apple approached him. “Here,” he said, giving the fruit to the blind man, “here’s an apple fer yon.” As the two boys moved away the one who had bought the apples said: “That feller didn't have any dinner. I been banging round that corner, and he didn’t have a tiling to eat." Pressed Beef.
