His first impulse was to keep them
as a souvenir, but his conscience final.
ly whispered that he ought to return
the gloves to their owner He did so
by parcel post.
In return he has Just received the
following letter:
My Dear James-I want to thank
you very much for returning the
gloves which you found after they had
dropped from our machine.
Your decision to return them is
typical of the honesty OF the average

Darling figures that he has been
more than amply rewarded, as it is
conceded that the letter is much more
valuable as a souvenir than the gloves
could possibly have been.

meal has stood on a table for twelve
years without being touched wss made
by Royce Thorpe of Olivet, while hunt
ing In Brookfeld township. about four
miles from Olivet.
Thorpe passed by a deserted old
shack which used to shelter Charles
Derby and which has been unoccup'ed
since the sudden death OF the latter
about 1900. Peering into the old hut.
Thorpe was surprised to see q table
set with two plates. knives. forks.
cups and other table ware. Thinking
some one had taken possession Of the
building, and knowing it had been un-
inhabited for half a score Of years,
Thorpe pushed open the door and en-
tered
He found the table set for two. Ex-
amining a loaf Of bread he discovered
it to be hard as a rock and somewhat
musty but entirely undisturbed by
mice or animals The sugar in the
great bowl in the center Of the table
had hardened and it, too, was un.
breakable. Some cheese had shriveled
and hardened and a Jar Of mustard
had dried and blackened in the twelve
years.
Derby, who was the last person to
live in the shack, according to neigh
bors, always set the table for two
