the clouds looked very portentous. and
almost deiuge was expected at any
minute. His purpose in stopping at
the store was to purchase an umbrel-
la. He first priced a cheap umbrella
and intended to buy it, but the mer-
chant, being we'll versed in his bust
ness. soon convinced the farmer that
five dollar umbrella only would fill
the demands expected of it.
One of the best umbrellas in the
store was picked out as his choice,
but before taking it, he STEPPED to t.
front door to expectorate, being ad-
dicted to the habit of chewing tobac-
co. AS he got outside to his surprise
he observed that the threatening
clouds of a few minutes before had
been entirely vanished by the sun,
which was shining cut bright and
clear. Seeing that he returned to the
merchant in the store and told him
as the sun was shining he didn't want
the umbrella. and to the chagrin of the
merchant, called for pair of shce
strings instead. On receiving them he
left the store
