An Undcrstandtng.

A night OF two since chap about 35
years old, looking as II he had crawled
out of a cave to commence life anew,
entered one OF the hotels, and waiting
at the counter until the clerk was at
liberty, he asked: "Is this hotel?
Eyes, sir" was the reply.
"Good living, good beds, and the
most courteous attentions!
Eyes, sir.
"Well." said the stranger, after a
long look at railroad timetable, IL
suppose you don't trust7"
mo, sir"
"Wouldn't let q man stay here four
or five days until something turned
up?"
"No, sir"
"That's what l wanted to know. j
always like to have an understanding
about such things, for II anything
makes me mad il is TO have a great bie
hotel clerk Jump in on me and kick m'
down stairs on account OF my straight
ened finances.
You'd better find some other place,
suggested the clerk.
"Oh! shall" replied the stranger
"The outside OF this hotel seemed tC
smile mt me; but as said before, m.
present policy is TO get along withou
being kicked. I've got mental feeling
as well as anybody else, and Tm get
ting so worn in flesh that a mere com
mon grand bounce from heavy hote
clerk upsets me for a whole day
Farewell, young man; don't bile NJ
extra taters for me.
