Now that the gentleman of science

HONESTY NOT LOST TO VIRTUE

articles which give proof that honesty
is not the lost virtue some people

of the return of $50 and an annual
pass that had been lost by railroad
man. He had fallen asleep in the
coach and later upon missing the
rocketbook containing the money and
pass believed he had been robbed
Yesterday he received a letter from
man in Lincoln, Neb. who said he
