we found a pocketbook containing
money. We advertised this fact IN the
Journal, and last week a certain gentle

and claimed same. On being asked To
give a description of the pocketbo0k
and contents, he responded as best he
could While his description did not tally
with the pocketbook and contents ex-

gentleman in question was the owner,
and turned the same over 10 him after
he had paid us the sum Of 50 cents for
advertising the poeketbook and contents.
Without looking In the pocketbook he put
il in his pocket and a deep, pleasant
smile appeared on his face as he bid US
good day" Around the corner OF the
office he pulled the pocketbook from his
pocket and made an examination. We
could not see his face, but Judging from
the way he drew himself up and said
eOh, ," he was not pleased at
finding only 10 cents therein. He never
came back, however, so we take il for
granted there is a possibility that he
was not the real owner. and IL the real
owner appears we VIII let him on easier.
