Withdrawn from time to time and

hungry eyes searched the passing

At last through momentary hole in

the beggar got out his cup. The benev-
olent-looking citizen passed him with
out look. The beggar was crushed.
He turned a cold and hungry face to-

too heavy. l don't get cent. Just be-
cause I'm fat, people think l don't have
to eat"
And he put the empty cup in his
pocket and turned slowly away.
