Ingenious English shoplseepcr.

An English shopkeeper carefully
watches the birth announcements in
the daily papers every morning. By
this means he is able to know the birth
day of practically every child in the
country whose parents are likely to in
dulge in expensive birthday presents.
The date of each child's birth, together
with the address of its parents, he care
fully writes down in huge folio, which
he calls his birthday chart. By refer
ring to this chart he knows when his
youthful clients birthday is approach
ing, and a couple of days beforehand he
sends the parents carefully selected
specimens of gifts suitable to the child's
age. 1t hardly ever happens that his
stock is returned without a selection
being made. as the mothers are so de-
lighted with his thoughtfulness that
they haven't the heart to rebuff him.
