That was a queer damage suit mix
up in New York recently. A man
named Rubin. we are told, had brought
suit against a broker, named Flint for
running him down with an automo-
bile, and inflicting injuries which
caused him to be taken to a hospital.
Rubin had modestly put his bill of
damages at $500. but now he is sorry
that he did not make It FIVE thousand.
for Broker Flint has sued him for a
hundred and fifty dollars damages for
defacing the motor car by kicking at
1t when it knocked him down. Our
advice to Rubin is not to kick when
he is knocked down again.
