ness man Of this city, living at Ala
Stuyvesant street, Brooklyn, in ono Of
It's most magnificent houses, with Mrs.
Henry Blinn, pauper sister whom he
had not seen in fifty yerrs, and whom
he found recently in the Delaware (O.)
poor-house. Fifty-four years ago Mr..
Easton, then q sturdy country boy, left
his home in Oneida County, this State,
and came here to make his living. He
left behind him his married sister, Mrs.
Blinn. Easton made money rapidly
and in time became one Of the leading
citizens of Brooklyn. His sister and her
husband moved out to Ohio, to STRAIT
ford, and became prosperous there.
That was the information that Easton
received twenty-six years ego, and 1t
was the last time he heard from them.
A few weeks ago Easton, now in posses
sion Of handsome fortune, decided
to 60 to Ohio and surprise his sister and
her husband with visit. At Stratford
he could learn nothing of them, until
one day no accidentally heard that an
aged couple named Blinn, that once
lived there, had been forced by quickly
succeeding reverses to seek an asylum
In the poor-house Of Delaware. He
sought them out and found that Mr..
Blinn was dying and was being tenderly
watched over by his aged wife, Mr..
Easton's sister. An imperative call cut
Mr.. Easton's visit short and he hurried
back to this city, but not before exact
ing promise from his sister that when
death released her husband she would
make her home in Brooklyn. Mr.. Blinn
died and Mrs. Blinn joined her brother
in Brooklyn. She left behind her un-
feeling children who, though fully able
to have earned q living for their parents,
selfshly refused to do so and permitted
the unfortunate old people to be thrown
upon public charity. Until financial
disaster had overtaken him, Mr.. Blinn is
said to have permitted his children to
have whatever they wished Of his prop

and finally stood up and looked ct th6
millionaire severely.
Ever been rejected by any insurance
company" said the doctor.
Certainly not, SIR" answered Bolus,
hotly; "never applied for q cent of II.
surance in my life."
"Well, am sorry to say, Mr.. Bolus,
that ] can not recommend our companb
to take you as risk. There Is some
thing tho matter with your heart. You
may drop dead at any moment, SIR
Old Bolus turned pale and then sank
into his Office chair again.
''Oh, 1t may be nothing serious" said
the doctor, 'only our company is very
careful about such matters, and of
course I have great responsibility.
II you should drop off three months
after have made his examination then
I would be IL. tr uJle. wish you good
morning, SIR"
Old Bolus sat for some time looking
into space and paid no attention to the
knocks at his door. Finally he called
up his boy and told him to telephone
to Mr.. Tonteen. When that gentleman
came he found the millionaire in q state
of mind.
"See here" he said, what do you
mean by offering me $4,000 insurance
and then having your physician reject
mep What do you expect to make by
that sort of conduct, sir?"
Really" said Tonteen, "has he 10
jected y u? Why, wouldn't have
thought it. You look to me as healthy
a man as walks the streets"
"And so am, sir; and so am"
well, see here" said Tontee:, conf
dentially, this is rather serious, you
know. Perhaps Bones is mistaken"
"Of course he's mistaken" cried the
millionaire, shifting his fist on the desk.
"Well, the trouble will be that If you
apply for insurance anywhere else you
will have t" tell them that you have
been rejected by our company
"But, sir, haven't been rejected.
never made application to your com
pany and l refuse to have 1t considered
So"
81 am sorry to say" said Tonteen, "that
your application has already gone In;
you remember you signed it? Now, I'll
tell you what we had better do, Mr..
Bolus; you come around with me to old
Squills. He's not half so particular as
uor other man. Perhaps he will pass
you all right"
"Very we'll, Mr.. Tonteen, ] will do
3d." said the millionaire, with a sigh Of
relief.
"But, Of course, you understand it can
not be on the first arrangement You
see, ! took you for being as sound a man,
IS said, as any that walks the streets.
1t seems that you are not so, and If you
get into an insurance company at all
now, let me tell you you are mighty lucky
and making a very good speculation OF
it. I only do this now because I have
offered you the free insurance, and be-
cause II your application were rejected
by our company you would not be ac-
cepted by any other company. l may
get into trouble on account Of this as 10
is, but we had better go and see what
DR.. Squills says"
DR.. Squills did not make nearly 50
thorough an examination as DR.. Bones.
and he had no hesitation in passing the
subject all right.
Mr.. Tonteen is now a very successful
insurance agent, but he never cares To
tell how he landed old man Bolus into
the insurance net.-Lnke Sharp, in De-
