Some parlor economists at the head
of a vast American railroad system
have ordered their Office employees to
waste no more pins. They may find
that this method OF saving is as UNI
profitable as 1t was to Timmns. an
acquaintance of the Boston Globe.
Tlmmins one day saw pin in tho
street. lie recalled at once the old
saying that n thrifty pickup would
bring good luck. lie bent over to get
the pin. His hat tumbled off and rolled
into the gutter. His eyeglasses fell
and broke on tho pavement. His sus-
penders broke. lie burst the button
holes on the back of his shirt collar.
He almost had apopleXy.
Perhaps ths railway CLERKS in the
ease cited arc wasting valuable time
at the bunghole while they are con-
serving cheap supplies ct the spigot.
