We met in the mid. dle of our journey and again the bar rel uppercut me, pounded my solar plexus, parked my shins, bruised my body and skinned my face. When we became untangled. I resumed my downward journey, and the barrel went higher I was soon at the bot tom. I stopped so suddenly that I lost by presence of mind aand let go the rope. This released the barrel, which was at the top of the elevator shaftfi, and it fell five stories and land squarely on top of me. And it landed hard, too.

from working because of an accident,
 "A week ago I went around on Sum- day morning to a new house that is being built for me. I climbed the stairs, or rather the ladder that is where the stairs will be when the house is finished, and on the top floor I found a pile of bricks which were not needed there. Feeling industrious I decided to remove the bricks In the elevator shaft was a rope and a pulley, and on one end of the rope was barrel. I pulled the barrel up to the top. after walking down the ladder and then firmly fastened the rope at the bottom. Then I climbed the ladder again and filled the barrel with bricks. Down the ladder l climbed again-fve stories, mind you-and un- tied the rope to let the barrel down.

and before I had time to study over the proposition I was going up the elevator shaft, with my speed in- creasing every second I thought about creasing every second. I thought about letting go of the rope, but before had decided to do so I was so high that it seemed more dangerous to let go than to hold on, so I held on.
 Half way up the elevator shaft I met the barrel of brickscom ing down. The encounter was brief. but spirited. I got the worst of it, and continued on my way toward the roof. That is, most of me went on, but much of my epidermis chung to the barrel and re- turned to earth.
 "Then I struck the roof at the same time that the barrel struck the celler. The shock knocked the breath out of

Once on my journey up the shaft when I met the barrel of bricks, the second when I struck the roof, the third when I was descending and met the empty barrel, the fourth when I struck the bottom, and the fifth when the barrel struck me. One accident would entitle me to $25 a week. Five accidents would entitle me to $125 a week, and I figurede that by staying in bed ten weeks I would clean up a comfortable sum. But the insurance man said it was but one ac- cident, and he would pay but $25 a week. Argument was of no avail, and so l remained in bed four days.
