A Coon SToRY-The following an
ecdote is related of Mr. Sheaf, a grocer
in Portsmouth, n. H.
1t appears that man had purchased
some wool of him, which had been
weighed and paid for, and Mr.. Sheat
had gone to the desk to get change for
o note. Happening to turn his head
while there, he saw in a glass which
swung so as to reflect the shop, a stout
arm reach up and take from the shelf a
heavy white oak cheese. Instead ofap'
pearing suddenly and rebuking him for
the theft, as another would, and
thereby losing his custom forever, the
crazy old gentleman gave the thief his
change as if nothing had happened, and
then under pretense of lifting the bag to
lay it on his horse for him, took hold OF
it, and exclaimed:
"Why, bless me, I must have reckon
ed the weight wrong"
ooh, no, said the other, 'you may
be sure you have not, for | counted ii
with you"
swell, well, we won't dispute the
matter, it is easily tried, said Mr.. s.,
putting the bag into the scales again l
was right made a mistake of nearly
twenty pounds; how ever, if you don't
want the whole you needn't have It'll
take part of it out
''No, no, said the other staying the
hands Of Mr.. Sheaf on the way to the
strings of the bag; guess I'll take the
whole.
And this he did, paying for dishones
ty by receiving the skim milk cheese at
the rate OF forty cents per pound, the
price of the wool.
