How Easily are We Chilled.

A few years ago company or stroll-
ing actors got stranded in small town
in Ohio. 1t was, as the actors say,
80 hard 90" 1t was a case in which
the end seemed to justify the means
The men all went to the bottom of their
pockets, but only fifty cents could be
scraped together in the entire crowd.
The money was taken to Il grocery IN
the little town and invested in cheap
soap. The bars were cut up into small
pieces, which were wrapped in colored
tissue paper. These were divided among
the men, and they started out to raise
the wind. The wonderful stories that
were told of that soap made the inno-
cent town people open their eyes
These little pieces of soap in their pretty
covering of tissue paper were sold ior
twenty-five cents; bar Of soap, which
cost five cents, was made to net ~. ana
in two days enough money was raised
to take the company out of town. That
was only one experience; the same
company passed through many others.
In hard row, one day, one OF the
actors took wire basket from sword
and twisted the little pieces of wires
into curious shapes. These, he claimed,
hung on to the driving wheel of sew
inc machine, would make it work easier,
and with n quick, ready tongue. he
convinced the women that it mitigated
their labors about one-half, and he soon
had n wcll-iilled purse, Another man.
