streak of gentle humor and a fond
ness for gardening. Not long ago his
man Of all work left him, and the ed
ltor advertised for some one to fill his
place. Among the applicants for the
position was a man who seemed to
know his business thoroughly, but who
failed to produce references as to char
acter when requested. Moreover, his
eyes were somewhat shifty.
