That poison hoited down that Coal-hole:
something ought to be done about it. Finkelstone
heard woman protest as they bundled him into the
ambulance and the words were like music in his ears
Its Sol Epstein's house, what used to run Fin
kelstones delicatessen, volunteered another.
Such a hard-luck house! It's wonder he would
mt of sold it," commented third
It's a wonder he wouldn't anyway have that
coal-hole fixed. Does he want everyone should
break his neck for the sake OF few cents, uh?' de-
manded still another.
Finkelstone listened to them all and chuckIed
despite his pain
If sprained ankle would cost him 81 900, guess
a genuwine broken leg would make him stand up
and give notice all right all right he gloated as
he lay on the floor Of the ambulance, and the re-
Election caused him so much merriment that the
ambulance surgeon thinking his patient was beCom-
ing deirious leaned over and abbed him with a
hypodermc syringe to quiet his nerves.
That evening Mrs. Finkestone visited her hus-
band in the hospital Before the nurse could restrain
her she was at his bedside and had thrown her arms
around his neck.
Easy easy, Sadie Ieben, l got it broken leg'
cautioned the injured man, trying to free himself
from his wie's embrace.
"MypoOr Louie. Thought you was dead already.
But got it good news for you, Louie. Pepper and
me put it another under that lowlife Epstein
You did, Sadie leben2 That was good woik,
but put one under him myself. Foist tell me what
you done it."
We'll, couple weeks 90, pepper heard it that
Epstein having such a hard luck nit a house he
owned it. NIT law-cases and things and it made him
so crazy he was willing to sell for a song Well,
Louie, you know how smart pepper was and when
he heard Epstein was so crazy to sell, he goes to
woik and offers him just half what the property is
woth and before that owlife knew what he was doing
pepper got him to sign it a contract. This morning,
Louie, | went by the lawyers office and the papers
was signed and everything. Therefore, Louie, so
soon you would get out from the hospital, would
right away move into the house, amt it?'
And what the number from the house,
Sadie? " asked Louie, apprehensively
"Thenumber, Sdgt er! What difference would tmake
the number, Louie? You ain superstitous are you?"
mo, Sadie, | amt supersttious understand,
only got it an idee some numbers would be uckier
for me as others"
''Well, the number was 63, Louie-right around
the corner from the store"
'Oi geogoldt, Such a number you should buy it.
You didn't put one under Epstein: you've gone to
WOiE and mt one under rl1e''

Louie's eyes cleaned joyously and he
shook his head from side to side he contemplated
what few sprained ankles and broken legs might
cost his old enemy Epstein.
After he had closed his deliCatessen for the night
Louies curiosity led him to walk around the corner
to take look at Epstein's Coal-hole
He touched the cover gingery with his foot and
sure enough it rocked He walked to the end of the
block and on his way back he tried the again.
He had all he could to do to resist the temptation
to step right it and suffer the consequences at
Epsteins expense.
Three times the next day Finkelstone walked past
Epstein house to assure himself that the loose coal
cover was still there and each time resolve he had
already partially formed grew stronger.
At five o'clock Benny, the boy, started out with
the orders to be delivered in the neighborhood.
Louie watched him as he opened the door
Never mind, Benny" he called his mind now
fully made up, give me that basket: would deliver
them goods myself
The boy handed him the basket and Louie
started out.
As he neared o., he was trembling in every limb.
Approaching the COa-Chute, he quickened his pace,
but as he reached the dangerous cover his courage
failed him and he stepped over it instead OF upon it
Ashamed of his CowardiCe Finkelstone would have
turned back but at once realized that hewere observ
ed his action would look suspicious. He continued on
hisway therefore and delivered his orders fully resolv
ed however to carry out his purpose on his way back
\ few minutes later as he neared the coal-chute
again, his empty basket slung across his shoulder,
he quCkened his pace tightly shut his eyes and
stepped boldly out. TO his surprise nothing hap
pened although as his foot landed on the cover he
felt it sway and rock.
Retracing his steps as though he had forgotten
something Louie shut his eyes again and walked
rapidly towards the coal-cover
Uttering loud cry as he felt his leg descending
into the chute Finkestone waved his arms frantic
ally in an instructive effort to save himself but it was
too late. Down the coal-hoe his leg shot, following
the curve of the chute in manner no human leg was
ever meant to bend, and then something snapped.
"Oi ge5coldH My leg is broke!' yelled Louie,
almost fainting from fright and pain
It's Louie, the deCateSsen man. shouted

the coal-chute, and while policeman pulled him
out of the hole and then went to summon an ambu-

that she had been away all day and no one knew
