need not be told that there are many
<~n9l2A>-

ME people of Elkton aud Cecil county
need not be told that there are MANY
ways of getting warm beside sitting
by the stove, but representative of the
CECIL WING experienced "visionaryn
warming one morning, last week, on COM
ing up North street to the newspaper office,
bundled up to the neck in the heaviest
coat he owned, and hurrying along because
OF the freshness. Every body else seemed
| cold, and glad to have their hands not
only encased in heavy wooden loves but
thrust deep into their pockets. But there
was one pedestrian who, as far as the cold
was concerned, you would thinI; imagined
himself to be in the sunny cline of some
South Sea island. He moved along
eisurely with a contented air, seeming to
be in DO hurry whatever, smiling as though
his face was wreathed in July sunshine,
and waving his bare hands around in the
chilly ozone, as though ne were dipping
them in an inviting mixture of warm
and cold water with preponderance of the
|
der, and as they looked their wonder grew
rs to what ingredients the man had in his
make-up which rendered him so imper-
vious 10 the cold. The man was no
other than jim Coppoge, the man of all
work at the Howard House, who was stroll
| ling down the street in his shirt sleeves
without even dress coat, much less an
overcoat on.
When interviewed on the subject as to
the secret OF how he kept warm without
coats, Jim sad: "What are you talking
about? This amt cold, this is the way I
go all the time, don't bother wearing a
coat, and, in fact, don't want to be both
cred with it." And then several by
ISLANDERS said that they had never seen jim
wear coat--he always went in his shirt
sleeves, not only when the weather was
warm enough to melt the gold in the
Eighth District "klondike," and make the
gold leaf or the sign Of Balls Oak Hall,
Main street store, run into exclamation
points, but even when the weather was
cold enough to freeze the composition in
the thermometer hanging along the side of
the door of DR.. Wells drug store.
The overcoat dealers of Elkton, made an
effort to compel the CECIL WING, to sup
press this story OF how Jim Coppage gets
along without coats, on the ground that if
Jim's secret became known, their business
will be hurt, but from what Jim said to
the representative of the WING, it is not
likely he will divulge his secret but guard
it as stolidly as does the Sphynx its knowl-
edge.
