be deposited depends for its success on the
honesty of tho guests, and it sometimes hap.
pens that while the man is slowing away a
good square meal some stranger is quietly
vanishing with his hat. This generally de
pends on the quality of the hat. A pleasant
looking man came out of a hotel dining

look at the hat, and then said, sadly: 'Ney-
