The latest dodge of confidence men is TO
enter a store, purchase trifling article for
five cents and throw down $40 bill.
When change is made the swindler deity
pockets one of the bills, then shoves the

there is no need or breaking the bill after
all. The storekeeper chucks the change in
the drawer without counting it over, and
the swindler takes his $40 bill and walks
off.
