DIPLOMACY FOR THE LANDLADY.

supply OF Towels.
This mans boarding house grievance
was towels.
He liked his room, which wal big and
comfortable. His landlady was patient
and indulgent. In fact everything was
all right except the towels. That Ii to say
the lack Of towels.
For the entire -four years he had kicked
and battled for enough towels, TO no avail.
Sometimes he'd find a towel wherewith to
complete his morning ablutions but often
he wouldn't. When the towel was absent
he'd nave to open his door and below to
the maid down In the basement to fetch
him a towel. He rarely noticed the lack
Of a towel till after he'd swabbed himeelf
and then. after shouting over the bannister
for the maid TO fetch him a towel, he'd have
to stand in his room like a cypress dripping
in a swamp and shake his fist at the wall
paper.
often the maid would be In the act Of
helping the cook to scramble the eggs or
mixing the b~uckwheat cakes when the
howl for the towel penetrated the base
ment. On such occasions she'd let the
young man yell till he was hoarse and he'd
get no towel. Whereupon he'd be COM
PEELED to dry himself on the ~cretonne
portieres In front Of his bookcase.
For four years, as stated, he complained
to his landlady about the towel business.
For a day or 30 after these kicks were
registered there'd be two towels on the
towel rack every morning and he'd revel
| in the joy Of ample towels. Then the same
old towel would be suffered to remain on
the rack for as much as two or three days
at q stretch, until the man would wrath
fully tie it in o knot and fling 1t IN the floor.
Maybe there'd be a fresh towel on the rack
tho next morning and maybe there wouldn't.

A prominent attorney of Baltimore told

Ono Of the lar gest gambling houses in San

two men. one OF whom carried a large powder

man with the powder horn threw II on the
counter and said In a loud voice: i am tired
