DRESSED man who sat IN one Of the easy

He comes befe every morning regularly
and reads the papers and writes his let
tiers. He Is rioh man and thinks moth
ing Of spending S1 at the bar but he never
buysa newspaper. He sits around and
'rubbers' until some one gets up and

makes q dash for 1t and begins to read.

Ike the old, highly respectable man are
allowed to greb whenever they can.
