Sammy ViEhers' Clever Scheme and Its
Admirable Results.
On the twentyfourth day of Decem-
Der, as Abner Withers, the senior part
ner in the firm of Withers & Co., picked
up the mail that always awaited his
arrival at the office, an unstamped letter
on the top of the pile at once caught
his eye.
It had been marked: Returned to
writer for prepayment of postage
above the address; and the firms bust
ness card in the upper left-hand corner
of the envelope showed where the post
Office people had obtained the informa-
ton that enabled them to return the
letter.

1ess,' thought Mr.. Withers. "He has
dropped that letter in the box without
stamping it. I've no doubt it's an inn
