One OF the earliest lessons of child
hood should be n regard for things held
in high esteem (not to say sacredly SOY

But with all this, there will almost al

A curious case happened here in town
few months ago, which you newspa-
per mon didn't hear of. A clerk in the
silk department of prominent house
had wife and two children. but he be-
came so infatuated with stranger that
five or six of the women i'm tho neigh
borhood where she lived identified him.
They then formed ring to blackmail
him, and he was waited on and inform
ed that each wanted silk dress ut a
very low price. II he could furnish
them, all right; if he couldn't, then his
wife should be informed of his identity.
The clerk wilted ut once. The women
of the ring came in, one after another,
for their silk. He would sell pattern
for say so yard, send it and the money
back to be accounted for, and when the
package returned he would open it and
slip IN II more expensive pattern. He
furnished the six with silk dresses in
this way without being detected, but
one of them Dragged to n neighbor of
the SNAP" and the result was his ruin.
He went out of tho store without II dol
lar, and inside of week had neither
food nor fuel for his wife and babies.
Not only his disgraceful discharge be-
came known to all merchants, but the
ring" women put his wife on track of
the other matter, and he was done for.
