”Mr. Ricks.” announced Mr. Skin-
ner. the manager of Cappy Ricks.
Ricks Logging and Lumbering Com-
pany. I regret to announce that there
seems no escape from a. law-suit
with that fellow Finnell. of the Gold-
en West Lumber Company.’
“My dear Skinner." Cappy an-
great many years ago that there can
never be any profit or commercial
delight in doing business with busi-
ness menI of the Finnell type? If
you're in trouble with him it serves
you right..
"Well. I haven't done any business
wlth him for nearly five years." Mr.
Skinner defended. “I know what a
sharper he is .so every time he has
sent in a. specification for us to fig-
ure on. I have quoted him two dol-
lars above the market and stipulated
ninety to a. hundred and twenty day
delivery. As a result he has gone
elsewhere with his busines.’ '
‘Well. I’ll admit that's better than
telling him‘outright that we do not
care to do business with him because
he's a. sharper and unethical. The
best way out. of a fight is around it.
Skinner. and a busincs man without
diplomacy ought to be shot right
back of the ear with a pack-saddle.
How did you come to get gnarled up
with him ,now. after all these pro-
cautions! '
"We be an accumulation of short
length re ood. No. 1 rough com-
mon and better. and you know how
difficult it is to move that class of
material. Well. along came Finneli
with an inquir y‘that would niove all
we had on hand. so I cut the price
promised him thirty days deliverv
on all of it and practically immediate
delivery on half of it. He confirmed
the order in jig time we have made
delivery and now he is kicking at
the grad."
"But didn't you all him, subject to
our own mill tally .and inspection?"
“I me. sir. Neverthelcs. he had it
tallied at the port of discharge by
an Association tallme and has sent
us a bill for half the cost of tallying.

“Youniaynot knowit, butI’mthebest little old hegolfer inthesepartl”
He is the sort of bus‘nce man who
never claims very much, so the other
fellow usually lets him get away
with it. By’ making a claim on every
lot of lumber he buys he {aliens his
profit and loss account several thou-
sand dollars annually. However. he
has met the man who will not play
into his hands."
"Your sentiments do you credit,
Skinner. but I see plainly that you
do not understand this fellow Fin-
nell. He knows that if we submit it
to arbitration. the usual board of ar-
bitration will do the usual. weak.
human thing. They will order us to
pay half and Finnell to pay the
other half. Remember, Skinner. nine
out of every ten men are pussyfoot-
era. He will take the middle. of the
road if he can. Flunel. knowing tins
from long experience. suggests it be-
cause no matter what happens. he
wins something he isn't entitled to.
Now, then. Skinner. do not be preci-

"What will you do to him, Mr.

Cap'pv smiled a prescient little
smile. I "In dealing with human

has he ever seen me play. We belong
to different clubs. But I have seen

ly he plays and‘ how he likes to lake

know it. but I'm the best lit’ie rid
lie-golfer in these parts—Titer. my
years. It's a dull day when i cannot
do Sequoia links in eighty-five.':
“What do you purpose doing?"
“I purpose calling Finnell up and
asking him to play eighteen holes
with me at Sequoia. while we dis-
cuss this difficulty you and he have
gotten into. I’ll be as sweet as old
pie to him. Of course he will accept
»my invitation. Sequoia is the sport-
lest urea in the state and Finuell
doesn't belong to it. Skinner. did
you ever see a golfer_ 'wh'o didn't
crave an invitation to play the other
fellow'a links?” ‘.
"I have not. sir.”
‘ "And you never will. my boy. All

Two weeks later Cappy entered
Skinner's office and laid on the lat-

ger. “And by the way. I sold Finnell
