MODERN ANANIAS FOUND

A very funny scene was noticed
in Westminster Abbey in connec
with the hospital Sunday services
The collectors were coming round
with little bags for the ofiertory,
and people began to take out their
purses to hold their money in hand
ready to give it. A lady Of rank
and fashion, well known at the
West End, was one OF the congre-

She somewhat ostentati0usly dis

nay, rather, she tried inefectu-
ally, to slip q three-penny pie, }
into the bag--but the coin stuck
on the gilt edge Of tho receptacle
and had to be placed inside by the
collectors. To say that the lady
blushed Is not to describe the scar
let appearance Of her face when
she saw how she had been detect

stood by and saw the shabby act
gazed at her in amazement, and
In a minute she turned deadly
pale, as though she would have

DON'T BELIEVE ALL THAT You

A one legged soldier, walking up the
Bowery yesterday, was accosted by q
clothing merchant with the usual "Sell
