A friend tells US = story of drum
mer who used very keen strs tegy in q
successful effort to oblige his employer
tn present him with q new overcoat.
He was out on the road when the first
cold snap set in, and to his dismay
found tina. he numbered net an over
coat among his goods and chattels. In
this dilemma he went to q dealer pur-
chased a COED coat and charged it up
in his expense account. When he re-
turned from the trip the proprietor of
the house looked over the items. and
at once summoned the tourist into
bis presence.
"joDes." said he, ''what does this
item mean 7 'Overcoat, $38. >"
'Means just what it says, l guess.
Old Prob's slung a chunk o Arctic
weather at me down in Posey the
other day, and l thought it might not
appear in very bad taste to hang an
Overcoat on this beautifully moulded
frame of mine. Sensible, eh 7"
With an impatient gesture the mer-
chant replied
SOh. well, the house cannot be ex-
Pected to keep you in clothing. l will
charge this up to YOU"
All right. governor, charge her up"
When he came in from his next trip
he turned in his orders and expense
account, and after the head of the
house had examined the latter, he
asked:
DO you see an overcoat IN there
this trip!"
"No" said the merchant. "this ap-
