While he was saying this he held his shelter
in such manner that the rain dripped from
it down the collar of the man who was UNI
sheltered. His clothing was dripping anyway.
He had caught as much of the storm as he
could hold. He passed on to drug store and
put himself in the hands of a prescription clerk
who understood his business Then he started
home II was late, and the household had
retired. He uttered a groan, and it awoke
his wife, who got up and was kept busy for
an hour She poulticed him and blanketed
him until he felt as If he were horse. When
he got up the next morning he looked in the
glass and then went to see preacher. That
man created an uneasy feeling wherever no
went during the day, lost an opportunity TO
make his expenses, and then sent an article
to the newspaper about an unfeeling world,
ingratitude, and all that sort of thing. Just
because the man whom he had met on tbs
corner had an umbrella. Chicago Herald.
