Who'n give me a dollar for them?"
No answer.
Eight For a Dollar.
Gentlemen" he went on, after a
short pause, I usually sell these fine
handkerchiefs eight for a dollar. but

folded handkerehiefs now in my hand.

March, one for Sunday, one for Mon

luck and one to wrap up the bundle,
so, all for a dollar.
Sold," shouted half a dozen all IN
one breath. Each figured that the
bundle contained over twenty hanu-
keTchiefs-
Another bundle was sold, and an
other. The brokers fought Tor
chance. fearing that he might quit be-
fore all could be supplied. Herr Obern-
dorfer was one who purchased While
others were struggling for an oppor-
tunity to do likewise. he opened ms
bundle and cOunted-just eight hand-
kerchiefs. worth perhaps > cents each
Here" he shouted. you only gave
me eight handkerchiefs. This IS
swindle. 7 want my money back
Oberndorfer Has a Kick.
But the salesman only smiled bland
" and declined And the spectators
laughed.
"Tn have you arrested" shouted
Herr Oberndorfer.
"Oh. you're only bluflng" said the
HANDKERCHIEF man, with confident
chuckle And he closed his grip and
faded out of the side door
Other customers Investigated and
discovered only eight handkerchiefs in
each bundle. Each time the strange
young man added, zone for the baby.
one for the dog" etc, he had dropped
one from his hand back into the grip,
leaving the original number in the
bundle he finally wrapped up.
Herr Oberndorfer saw the man and
demanded his dollar back again and
again. but IN vain. Then he went over
to the police station, told his tale TO
Assistant County Attorney Dana L
smith and swOre out warrants against
Isaacs for obtaining money under false
pretenses and for peddling without a
license. Isaacs put up s125 cash bail
and was released, He will be tried
today.
I don't see why they should kick, "
he commented, after his arrest.
They're in the same kind of business,
only in a little different way. I sup
pose if I could list handkerchiefs on
the exchange / could do business right
along without a protest"
