glazier. The first had lot of ribs and
handles and old umbrellas, and the second
had dozen panes of glass in box on his
back. Seeing that they regarded each
other with GOODNESS, asked of the UNI
brella member:
Don't you recognize the profession
when you meet?"
''It's not the same line of business, sir, -
he replied. Anybody can putty in pane
of glass, but it takes an artist to mend an
umbrella"

platform L SHE'D up alongside of the glazier
and remarked:

umbrella MANI"

simply that my professional pride de-
mands that he speak first. He's trade,
you see, while 1 have a profession"
Two hours later l met them in company
at Chatham square, and the glazier recog-
niZed me at once and took me aside to say:
