A sPecuLAToR,s LUCK.

He Drew on tho Sultan of Turkey ana the
Draft Was Honord.
a good story is told of n certain St.
Louis Spectator who had need of n
large sum of money for his operations.
and found himself with n very small
balance in the bank. He consulted thu
cashier, n friend of his, as to how H.,
could get over the emergency. The
cashier suggested that he should draw
on somebody not too nenr the city.
The operator said that he knew no nc
that owed him, and the cashier in
simulated that that would make no
difference, if the draft did not return
too soon.
The operator, say the New Orleans
Picayunc, reflected for n time, and then
wrote out II draft on the sultan OF
Turkey for ten thousand dollars apG
deposited it in the bank. The tr.,is
