and asked if they kept sh;ngle nails there.
Being informed that they had dozen kegs
on hand, he further inquired
"Are they genuine shingle nails, or only

They are shingle nails, of course"
Let me see them
A handful was placed on the counter be-
fore him, and he took several nails to the
door, where he could get a stronger light.
After scanning them thoroughly, he tested
two or three between hist eeth, tried 10 bend
them between his fingers and said
