Mine Host COOLEY. Of the Ban
aor Hotel, in little Maine town,
boasted TO his guests always OF
the fact that he prepared with his
own hands the hams ne served on
the table.
Goodley's hams we're known Tar
and wide and so was the fact that
their preparation was his hobby
and his great pride.
This story is told to illustrate
how a single weakness may creep
in at any moment TO undo a rep

Cooley was lmbureer cheese,
and his tendency was 10 sneak out

Michael O'Connor wandered into
the Bangor Hotel one morning for
breakfast, having heard Of the IA

The genial landlord swelled
with pride as O'connor told him
how many miles away he had
heard the praises Of the ham
sung by travellers on the road.
But, just as things will hap
pen, the cook absentmindedIy
picked up a platter which had
held Goodley's llmburger cheese
and upon il placed o'connor's or
der Of ham.

morning newspaper while pretty
waitress was spreading his dishes
around him, but when the ham
was put on he suddenly lost inter

and began survey Of the imme-
date surroundings.
He finally came to a dead point
on the ham and, carefully picking
up the dish, he lifted II close to
the organ of smell, turned his
head quickly and sent for the
landlord.
Mine Host Cooley was always
ready to 90 into the dining room
and take a compliment upon his
ham, and smiIIneIy approached
Mr.. O'connor's side.
