withdraw $25 from my bank re
marked the conscientious man,
something happened which almost
tempted me to think that honesty
may at times be not so very COM
mendable. By curious mistake,
considering the small amount of
money, the cashier handed out six
five-dollar gold pieces. Without
thinking what it meant to him I
showed one of the coins back, saying:
You have given me too much The
look that man gave me 1 have never
forgotten, although even at this
day 1 cannot describe it. But I
can assure you it was not a grateful
glance.

Eggs furnish a good substitute for
