fact that an accident has deprived him
of both his arms, found large roll OF
greenbacks. The money lay in the gut.

beg him to pick 1t up. This, on ac.
count Of his misfortune. he could mol
do. 30 he quietly kicked the treasure
into the shadow Of building and
tried to think out safe method ol
transferring 1t to his. lamentably
empty pocket. At last small boot
black sauntered by. and the man con-
cluded to take chances. With fine
pretense of having just dropped the
bills, the man gruffiy ordered the
youngster to assist him. The boy com
pretended the situation at glance,

heels. and, easily distancing his angry
pursuer, vanished permanently from
