Dr. Horton Lost $2l; Lee Kepner Found It.

A man Is lucky to have money to lose. He is lucky if he loses it to have It fall into honest hands. Dr. J. W. Horton lost s2l Friday; two tens and a one dollar bill. It had worked its way out of his pocket and fallen on the street. Lee Kepner, who works in Free Wood’s barbershop, found the money. Lee looked in the Evening Republican to see if the owner had advertised it. No ad was there and Lee thought he would advertise ft the next day himself, but early in the morning Dr. Horton dropped into the barbershop and remarked that he had lost the money. Lee pulled it out of his pocket promptly and restored ft to its owner. Dr. Horton gave him <2.60, a very liberal reward. It Is fortunate the money fell Into honest hands.
