The WAY OF THE WORLD
A man of about forty years old,
and woman seemingly seventy
years OF age, were at De-
troit, waiting for a train, when
the man strOlled out on the dock
and caught sight of one of the
city life preservers hanging to its
hook. He asked what it was,
and a laborer told him, and then
he asked: "How long will it pre-
serve a feller's hfe?" The man
told him a hundred years, and
the information staggered the
stranger. Walking around a few
inmates, as if meditating, he
stepped to his informant and said:
''See here, stranger, Pll take one
of them preservers, and if it
wouldn't be askin' too much of
YOU. I'd like to have you tell the
Old woman in there that you
haven't another one for sale, and
that the machine which has made
'em has busted"
