door he had disappeared: but when
she turned to investigate she was
astonished to behold . handsome gold

lated the incident to her customers.
Not one OF them could offer . plausi-
Bile solution. She finally concluded d
the man was crazy. and she felt pro-
foundly thankful that he had done no
worse
Then one day a second stranger ap-
peared. He was almost As mysterious
