the Templeton chairs last evening TAX
ing things easy after dinner. He was
smoking fragrant Havana, had his
feet on the window sill, and was enjoy

Gus was coming TO the town; where
Johnny lives and his mother had prom
ised him shat he should go arh take
his sister Alice, who is nine years old.
Johnny had been saving his slickels
so that he had dollar laid.up to
spend at the circus.
The day before the show WAS to
come Johnny was counting mis- money

the fat woman; that will cost twenty
cents. She will want a balloon and
some soda water, pop corn, AMP pea

Johnny thought a long tint over
the matter and finally got up and wan

cocoanut, some peppermint candy and
two cakes of ice cream. He carried
these home to his sister who thanked
him, kissed him. and called him a dear
good brother. Then she protested to
eat the ice cream, next the co!oanut
and finally the candy. But THAI night
