STRANGE Tale of Two Fishermen.

Early one morning during the pres
ent week young man by the name OF
Simon Powelson went out to the gov
eminent pier to fish.
He had the most expensive outfit
money could buy, including a pole and
reel that had cost him more than the
average fisherman can make in a
month, and his. bait was frogs and
minnoWs.
Mr. Powelson sat down on the pier
and began to fish.
Near him was a roughly dressed
man with a 10 cent-pole and an ordi
nary line all full OF flouts, and he was
using worms for bait.
The two men sat there and fshed
for three hours.
Neither one got a bite.-Chicago
