it to be one of those known in the trade by the cognomen of
"duffers," i. e. watches made up for the purpose of being pawned,

of frequent occurrence, he obtains twice or thrice the full value el
the duffer. The shopman pressed.bis finger against the case, which
yielded to the pressure like a bit of brown paper, when the ad
man because so irritated at spoiling the duffer that he seized as
ink-stand, and aimed a blow at the head of the offending party.
Fortunately it missed his skull, and made its *ay through the
window, splashing its sable contents over two silk umbrellas, and
dotting the face of a young woman in its progress.
The old man asserted the watch was a good one, and no duffer ;
that it went in his pocket until distress obliged him to let it go to
the pawnbrokers.

broken, which the old mats declaring his inability to pay, he was
locked up till the same shall be forthcoming.
