Whistler. Had Big Bank Account and
Didn't Know Il.

The Dundee Advertiser tells a story
illustrating Whistier's forgetfulness
and utter lack Of business instinct. Be-
Ing hard pressed for debt and having
finally been informed he would be
sued unless a check for the amount
was sent by return Of post. the artist
mentioned the matter to one OF his
friends who lived near him. Explain
ing that he had few pounds In the
bank, the exact sum unknown. he re.
quested his friend to stop at the bank
on the way to business to ascertain
what was required to make his &C.
count good for a check OF slightly over
$50. and to deposit that amount for
him as loan. The friend was quite
willing, and in due time stood at the
cashiers desk OF Whistler's bank ask
Ing for the amount OF that gentle
mans balance. explaining his errand.
The cashier was interested: went to
the big book OF balances. turned over
few pages. wrote down some figures.
and in a moment placed them before
the astonished friend. Whistler's bal.
ance was more than $4,000. The ar
tist was delighted. but found 1t difh-
cult to remember when he had depos-
tied SO much money or where he had
got 1t.
