A Cur1ou. shoe Trust.

Doylestown has four odd characters
who pool their issues in buying shoes.
They all have the same sized foot, and
each regards this fact in the nature of
libel perpetrated upon him by the
other three. Every year each one of
the quartet chips in SIS, and the fund
Of SIP is expended for shoes. Buying
them in such quantities there is natu-
rally reduction in price. One would
think that there would be an equal di-
vision Of the shoes, but that isn't their
little game.
The shoes are owned collectively,
share and share alike, and when not
being worn they are kept in a closet in
the express office, which is the general
lounging place Of the quartet If one
man wants to wear new shoes, he goes
to the express Office and puts them on
If he wears russets in the daytime and
wants to wear patent feathers in the
evening, he goes to the express Office
and makes the change. They have
been doing this for several years and
claim they wouldn't wear shoes in any
other way.-Philadelphi Record.
