many dimonsolate critters waitln fur me

meets with n hu-
man beln sittin in
front of a shanty.
Thar was a look
on his face which
aroused my sym-

to him:

“Mebbe that same light is wguldin of

over.
“Yes, I'm a-follerln of it to the best of
my humble endeavors.”
“Then I'm disappointed agin."
“As to how!”
“Stranger," he see in a voice broken
with the ornoshuns of his fcclin’s, “didst
ever hear of the game of poker?"
”I didst. It is a game that men with
gulls in their hearts play with keerds on
which pictur’s ar' printed If I mistake
not, they make use of etch sinful terms as
‘eallin,’ ‘blufiln,’ ‘raisin’ and ‘layin

“Hev ye any guile in yer henrti" sex
the man, speakin in a more hopeful way.
“As to which?"
“As to gittin oi! that boss and slttin
down here fur is game of poker. ”
“It's agin the rules of vamhcw. "
“I know it, but I'm askin yo in the
name or humanity. Stranger, I’m a dis-

who‘d take a hand at a game of poker. I
call and call, but I call in rain. I git up
with a swellln of the heart, nnd I go to
sleep with a y‘arnin of the soul, and door-
in tho middle of the day I realize that life
is cold and min and selfish."
“I am on a mishun," scz I, hesitatin to
depart from the straight and narrcr path
marked out fur myself.
“And hnin't that mishun Connected
with the happiness of yer fuller man?"
so: he.

go through lifo sis-kirrto make yer follor

“It is bootiful," son I as I took notice
that he had given me a pair of locks in
the five cards dealt out. “When a mortal
kin lie down in his dugout at night and
realize that ho has made even one fuller
critter more happy than he was the day
before, his rcmmi is soft and smthin. "
Then we played the sinful game of po-
ker fur a brief interval, and tho lonesome,
Iongin strange-r explained to me that he
had won $5 of my money. Thar was slob
a look of happiness in his eyes that I did
not orgy the pint.
“How nice that the finger of dooty p'lnt~
ed ye in this ilireckshunl” he said as ho
watched me denlln the kccrds and mallml
that I was like unto is lectlo child.
“Dooty, trooth and vnrchcw ar' over

that I had given him three arms and only
got a p’nr of queens fur myself.
Then we indulged in that game which

his heart he was full of career fur-my child-

"If it wouldn't lead me into the path of

Then we bluifcd and talked and laid
down our hands. He had three kings and
eras mechln out fur the wealth with a
confidence that techsd my heart when 1

its that dispairin and eorrerful hearted
stranger, who had bin waitin fur the fin-

reolrehun, had nuthin to remark. Then
he ecz to me:
“Stranger, as ye rides away leadin my
boss and n-carryin my gun and my $50 and
the title of this yore claim, will ye now
and then gin a thought to the critter who
sized ye up fur nyoarlin infant at the game
of poker?"
“I will," so: I, “and as the night falls
upon the nirth and the dew descendeth I
will fondly hope and believe that his loss
is my gain, and that out of the shredder
cumeth the sunshine.”
, And while he sat and reflected on the,
mutability of all things airthly I gather~
ed up the relics of his y'arnin and his sor~
tor and canicrcd away to bring balm to
some other critter's sorrerin heart.

Advice to a Bank. ‘
A very seedy man strolled into an Aus-
tin bank the other day during business
hours, and going up too window where he
saw a clerk counting a package of bills
nodded pleasantly and said:
“Still a~handin of it out?"
"Yes," replied the clerk, “still crowd-
ing it on to people."
“Ain't you a little too handy here right
on the main street?” asked the stranger.
“How so?" ‘
“Strangers passin along and seein your
sign so perspleuousliko are liable to step
in and try to borrow money, ain't they?”
“Rather liphle. ",
“I thought '56.. Must take up a good
dcai of time waitin o‘n 'cm?"
“Yes, it's some bother, but abank must
be acuunmodating. "
“Folks drop in bud horror what money
they want, I "suppose, and then goawuy
an forget all about it. Awful careless
some folks are nimut lmrmmi money. "
"Yes. they are."
“Shouldn‘t keep your bank so cius to

"You don’t look [Ari though you would."
“No. sir. I never lmrrurcd a cent of no
bank that i didn't pay,"
"l‘ll lwt you didn‘t. " said the clerk,
with emphasis.
“Now. if I was runnln a bank I wouldn‘t
