He Robbed the Thief.

From Czenstochowa, the Mecca of
Polish pilgrims, an amazing
story of condolences. A pilgrim went
to one of the priests and complained
that some thief had stolen his purse
while he was in church and asked for
money. The priest replied that he
had no money and that the best thing
for the pilgrim to do was to try to
find the thief.
II shall go into the church and steal
money from somebody else," said the
pilgrim, "for I have nothing to go
home with" He went into the church
and, seeing a man in the crowd with
a wallet on his back, slipped his hand
into it and pulled out his own stolen
purse, with the exact sum he had left
in it. He was so glad to find his mon
ey that he hurried off to tell the priest,
and the thief got away.-Warsaw Cor.
