People should understand that when a man
winks in an auction shop it is supposed to
mean something. Witness the following awk-
ward misunderstanding:
Smith, the auctioneer, is a popular man, a
wit and u gentleman. No person is offended
~ wbai he says, and many 4 hearty laugh has
he provoked by his humorous sayings. H.
vas recently engaged ut a sale ii venerable
household furniture, and bad knocked down
siindry lots Of kitchen furniture and fxens. He
lad just got to I" goipg. going, and a hall, and
q h%alf-goilg,' when he sa'E a smiling cnna-
%tcnance, upon agricultural shoulder yinking
ut him. A wink is always as good as i nod
70 Il blind horse or keen sighted anctioneer. So
Srnlth winked and the mar w:llkcd, and they
kept w~inking, and Smith kept going, going,
going, with u lot Of glassware, stovespipes,
carpets, pots and peIfumety, and finally the
whole was knocked down-sE Ia. a--who? r said
smith, gazing at the smiling stranger. Z Whn,
Goodee!!' said the stranger, Al dunno who"
:" Why. you, sir said smith. .Sno, me r.
