Year, AGO, into o Wholesale grocery
store In Boston walked Q tall. muscular
looking man, evidently fresh from some
bsckvoods town in Maine or New
Hampshire. Accosting the frst person
he met, who happened to be the mer-
chant himself. he asked:
"You don't want to hire . man In
your store. do you 2"
"wsll, don't know. What can you
do 2"
"Do :" said the man. 81 rather
guess can turn my hand to almost any
thing. What do you want done 2"
"Well, II I was to hire . man 1t
would bs one that could lift well-a
strong, wify fellow I; one. for instance.
that could shoulder sack OF coffee, like
that yondsr. and carry II across the foor
and never lay II down."
"Thers. nov. captain. said the coun-
tryman, "thatis Just me. can lift
anything I hitch to. You cant suit me-
better. What will you give man that
Win suit you 2"
"I'l tell you." said the merchant.
elf you viii shoulder that sack OF coffee
and carry Il across the store twice, and
never lay II down. will hire you for .
year ct 500 Q month.
"Dons," said the stranger. and by
this time every clerk in the store had
gathered around and waited to join in
the laugh against the man. who. walking
up to the sack. threw II across his shoul-
der with perfect ease, though extremely
heavy, and walking with IL twice across
the door. went quietly to n large hook
which was fastened to the wall. and
hanging II up. turned to the merchant
and said:
"There. now. II may hang there till
doomsday. shall never lay 1t down.
What shall I 60 about, misteri Just
give me plenty to do and 500 per
month, and it's all right"
The clerks broke into laugh, and the
merchant, discounted yet satishsd. kept
his agreement. and today the green
countryman II the senior partner In the
arm, and II worth . million dollars.

The Ruins in Colorado.

II SoAo a OTIS
The article lately published in the
Times upon the relics of southwestern
Colorado, suggests the question why
the ruins of those ancient towns may
not be preserved to the state. Congress
has heretofore set apart the great Yell
lowstone country as a national park, SO
that its wonders maynot be seized by
individuals and held for personal pro-
ft. The ruins in the southwestern
part of Colorado are of much greater in
terest than the native wonders of the
Yellowstone, and congress might we'll
donate ssthe sites to the state of
Colorado for preservation. With
out something. of this sort, in
twenty years the last vestige of the hab-
itations of that ancient race who inhab-
tied this country before the Indians,
and of whom we know nothing except
from these ruins, will have disappeared
under the clipping propensities of the
curiosity hunter who rides to the site
in a palace car.-lDenver Times. 1
