Lost TEMPER WAS COSTLY.
Poet Banker Threw Away and Douaha
Back HE Own Property.

Edmund Clarence stedman, the post
banker, had q high temper and was
exceedingly sensitive. One day, exas-
perated by the Grass stupidity Of .
servant, he threw book at his head.
The boy ducked and the book sailed
out Of the window. After it hurried
the mental, but he was too late; q
passerby had picked it up and walked
OF with 1t. Stedman began to wonder
what book he had thrown away, and
to his horror discovered that it was
a quaint and rare little volume for
which he had paid $50. His chagrin
was intense, as the work was almost
unique and the sprospasts, of replacing
it were remote. Z
Some time afterward ;swhen brows.
ing in q secondhand book shop, our
splenetic poet banker perceived to his
great delights copy Of the. very; book
he had lost. He asked the price. Its
very rare" replied the dealerS "'but as
you are an old customer I'll let you
have it for $40; nobody else could
have 1t for less than 500" Stedman
gladly paid the $40, got home with his
treasure as soon as possible, and sat
down to gloat over 1t. A card dropped
out Of the leaves. It was his own.
Further examination showed that he
had bought back his property. II
cured him Of casting books at serl
ants heads.-New York Press.
