rather strange sense of humor, was
master of ceremonies. Mr.. Jim Smith.
an intimate confrere and fellOw-boozer
of the host. proposed that the latter

paris-green. This was greeted with a
chorus of weak, drunken laughs. The
paris green was produced from a recep-
tacle IN which 'longshoreman of de-
spondent mind kept small portion

host took up the glass and, while the
others grinned at the sight III helpless,
alcoholic fashion, drank of the deadly
draught.
A lew minutes later THE situation lost
all its humor. The 'longshoreman gave
one prolonged howl of agony rs the
noxious draught commenced its deadly
work on his interior. He executed a
frichtful dance about the room, screaming
