Human endeavor since man became

The Half-FoOI-


One day, when Abner Gray appeared
in the village of Medina for the first
time, the first citizen he met sized him
up for half-fooL He appeared TO be
q young man of about "a, and was
stout and lusty- About all that he had
to say was that he was looking for
work, and he found it at the livery
stable. He was given work at $40 a
month, which the stable man had been
paying double that to have done, but
he said said to Abner:
You see. you may run across a
buried treasure, and if you do, it's all
yours
What, is there buried treasure
around here exclaimed Abner-
Heaps and heaps of it. It's gold
that was buried by the British during
the Revolutionary war;
The half fool took the place and
went to work. The livery man had by
accident struck on the others hobby
Abner was not much of a reader, but
his hobby was buried treasure He
was always talking about it. That he
was expecting to come across a chest
of gold while working for SO a month
soon come to be known all over the
village. and he was guyed on all sides.
He was told of string of pearls that
had been found hanging to limbs of
dead trees, and of boxes of jewels that
had been dug up by men hoeing corn
at 40 cents a day, and he believed

! everything told him. He worked for
the liveryman for two months. and
then, having found no treasure, he de-
cided to quit his job. There was a
rush to secure his services He was
a good worker, and he could be had
at half price. He put in a month at
the village tavern and as the treasure
still eluded him he engaged himself
to Deacon Spinney.
The deacon was a good mana very
good man. No one had ever questioned
his honesty or his sincerity. At family
prayers his voice could be heard a
block away, and people who had lis
tened to it said that it rang true. Oh,
Deacon Spinney was all right. but he
had leased 10 acres of ground and
planted it to corn and that corn must
! be hoed and plowed and gathered and
husked and shelled. It would be
mans work, all right, and why pay a
dollar a day when there was Abner
Taylor just itching to work for 40
cents, providing there was a prospect
of buried treasure
The deacon found Abner and had a
talk with him. He was not going to
deceive the man in the least.
"Abner," he said, in his slow and
honest way, II have got 10 acres into
corn
