dtease by his friends on account Of his
habit Of lunching just before gsing to

ly jumping TO the conclusion that the
mischievOus young laGy had made him
the gift, he went on tiptoe 70 the door
Of her room and tossed a cracker
through the open transOm. The room
was dark, but the crackers fall was fol-
lowed by a slight scVfiing. He paused
a moment, and then threw q second

heard, but no one spoke. Having
tossed the entire contents of the bag in-
70 the room, the young man stole away.
and, ms he left the corridor, met the
young lady coming 10 her room.
Troubled in his mind, be made inqui-

his testimony, is oftiiose careless persons who
always intending TO do right, but have to be

disability would probably also enttle you to $50,
and yet although you may be disabled twice as
