 Mrs. Smith took the bundle and fec bly thanked him. When Algernon came home, she told him. He said there were moro ways of killing cat than of ehok- ing her with butter, and after supper he took up the bundle and went out
 He knew of nice dark place down near church where he could slide in and drop that load of shoes without be- ing seen. He had taken the preeaution to tear off tho address and had changed the shape of the bundle. As he deposit- cd it ill the archway of this dark corner heavy hand was laid on his shoulder.

 Smith took the crowd in and told his story-how they had put those shoes in the garbage box and had them turned out again and how they had tried to sell them or give them away and finally to lose them. Then he showed the poll a3 to the basement and opened the door of the furnace, where the shoes were being cremated.
