Through the chance perfect adjust.
ment in the way of balance Of row
of large photographs that hang on the
wall of an office on the twentysecond
floor of an office building downtown
the clerks in the place have a good
deal Of quiet amusement with persons
who visit the place for the first time.
Owing to this balance the pictures are
easily swayed by the wind that blows
through the open windows, and since
the office force goes in for fresh air
the year round the pictures are never
still The joke lies in catching the
Mortified expression on the faces Of the
callers when they get sight Of the
swinging frames. Then II is always
explained with due solemnity II the
boss is not around that the swaying OF
the frames Is due to the oscillation Of

the point Meanwhile he has suffered
