THE BARTERING INSTINCT.

A Case In Which 1t Was Strongly Derel-
oped and Persistent.
There was wistful expression on
his face as he strolled up to the box
office of the theater He stroked
his beard with an assumption of
nonchalance and said to the young
man who was selling tickets:
BE ye goin ter hev anythin goin
on here ternight?'
Eyes, sir, was the answer. I'VE
have a performance here every
night.
Crowded houses?"
"Oh, guess we can find place
for you if you want to go in.
q wouldn't want anything very
expensive. Most any place I'D do
fur me-
"we can sell you seat for 25
cents. ,
That's rock bottom price, is it?'
eve can't give any discount on
that. y
''Waal, dunno. Would ye sorter
do me q pus nal favor?"
1t was dull day and the man in
the box Office was little lonely, and
to keep the conversation going, he
answered:
Yes, If you don't ask me to pass
YOU into the show for nothing
Il wouldn t make no seoh request
90 that. I'm willin ter pay fur my
amusement or go wethout. But
would We take five cent stamps
in part payment"
Eyes. We can use them.
IAN I've got dime with hole
in it. Would ye jes ez soon let that
60 in fur cents? That's discount
of 2 cents on account of the hole. =
The ticket seller was thoroughly
amused by this time, and he an
swered:
Yes. Let's have it, "
"That'll make IS cents. I reckon
yell want cents more. "
I'm afraid I will. y
"Waal, here's the IS cents. Ill
come around ternight an set down
anywhere ye put me, an when ye
think I've seen IS cents with, We
kin send one o yer hired men around
all notify me. I'll git right up an
go out, an there won't be any dis
turbance whatsomever.
I'VE cant do anything like that.
You'll have to buy ticket for the
whole show or not go in at all. y
"Waal, there's only one thing I
kin offer We. Ye can take yer choice.
I'll Civ ye this here jackknife that I
paid quarter fur less'n a year ago
an which only hez one blade out O
the three broke, or I'll Civ We this
10 cent piece of chewin terbacker,
which I was goin ter take home ez
present ter the hired man.
IL don't see how we can do
anything like that. y
ut I'D be a great accommodation. y
"All right, said the amiable tick
ct seller. Hand over the jack
knife. And he threw him out a
ticket
II know ye ain t runnin no junk
shop, the applicant said as he pass
cd over the cutlery, ian I'm much
obliged ter ye fur maxim this excep-
ton. l hated ter go way wethout
seein theayter show, but of l wus
ter hev ter hev paid real money out
an out I don't think Mehitabel
would ever forgive me fur it. But
the postage stamps I'D likely hev
got lost before got a chance ter use
'em, an 1 couldn't pass the dime, an
I've got another jaokknife. So ez
long ez I jes' traded in fur it l kin
enjoy the actin weth clear con-
science an go home an tell Mehitabel
all about it. Detroit Free Press.
