SIMPLE REMEDY FOR SNORING
An Amusing Story of How o. Henry,
the Author, Had a Cork
ing" Time.

Comparatively little was ever writ
ten about Sidney Porter, the short
story writer, under the name of o.
Henry, until his death recently, but
since then no end of stories have
crept out. A New York bartender
who boasts of close friendship with
the late author tells an amusing tale
of his introduction to Mr. Porter.
Mr.. Porter dropped in late one win
ter night and ordered a hot toddy.
A hanger-on, whom the bartender had
tried to pry loose from chair in the
rear of the place, was snoring loudly
and had refused to be deposed.
why don't you cork him?" sug
gested Mr.. Porter.
"'Cork him?' What in the world
is that?" inquired the barkeeper.
Very simple remedy-very simple.
It's what we get down in Texas when
we drop off to sleep in a hondy-tonk"
After being granted permission Mr..
Porter started in to give an eXposi.
ton of the "corking" game He took
a large cork and split it half way up
the center. Then he arranged several
wooden matches in the other end. like
SO many quilts in a porcupine's back.
Cautiously he fastened the split cork
over the sleeper's nose and asked for
a large pail OF water
Standing at the side of the unsus.
pecting sleeper he lighted one of the
matches. At the top of his voice he
shouted "Fire!" One match after
another ignited with sharp crack,
and as the frightened sleeper jumped
to his feet Mr.. Porter let go with the
water and drenched him from head to
foot. The man bolted for the door,
half dazed, but wide awake enough to
think the place was on fire.
