HE GAINED THE CUSTOMER.
The willy and Wide-Awake Grocer
Proved That His Prohibition
Principles Were Deep.

A well-dressed woman entered an
Oak Park grocery store and asked tc
see the proprietor, who, seeing that
she was a stranger, at once prepared
to welcome her as new suburban
lite and prospective customer. He took
off his apron, smoothed his tumbled
hair, and, seizing pencil and order
pad, approached her with grand busi-
ness flourish.

Then she walked out, while the
grocer gnawed his mustache and
looked at the blank pad with savage
intensity, when happy thought oeS-
curred to him. He ran after the
woman.
II merely wished to say, madam,
that you are right. / gave up selling
corn and rye for similar reasons-but
perhaps you can guess?"
Because you don't keep feed

of suspicion in her voice.
