Dor he decided on real esta,e.
He asked Tabor for a position.
He was refused. Then he thougnt
the matter over and went back
to see Tabor again. He was again
refused.
The third time worked the
charm. Ritz made this proposi-
ton:
II will work for you for arr
months without pay. II at the
end OF that time l am worth any

Tabor put him to work. AT tho
end of the six months Mr.. RTE
