“L'il bet yon zo Eees an’t.”

The polite stranger was not a betting man, but for the sake of showing that

bis ¢ coo have to bet the sporting young man | just once. It would be more enterestiog, suggested the latter if they made it $19. | The polite stranger thought it would, too, aud, $20 being placed in a stake- holder's hands, the latter and the two betters set out fora neighboring drug store. The bar which the young man had sold was here found to ve short in

weight and size. P ive more establish- ments were visited all with the same result, and the clerk ordered the stake holder to give up the $20. The polite} stranger then left, rather unceremon- iously, and the sporting young man went back to his toil.
