Of silver and its coinage value. Mr.. Warner

rs Years ago, into q wholesale grocery
store in Boston walked a tall, muscular
looking man, evidently fresh conner
from some backwoods town in Maine OF
new Hampshire. Accosting the first

merchant himself, be asked: ~ '''.s

be one that could lit well--a strong,

"Done," said the stranger, and by this
time every, clerk in the store had gather
ed around and waited to join in the laugh
against the man, who, walking up to the
sack, threw it across bis shoulder with
perfect ease, although extremely heavy
and walked twice with it across the store

fastened to the wall, and hanging it up
turned to the merchant and said:
