TO A GROCER

A smooth stranger walked into

last evening and made a small
purchase of groceries. He en-
gagged Bailey in conversation,
and during the talk handed over
a IS gold piece as payment for
his purchase. After Bailey had
made change for the coin and
the stranger had gone, he saw
that the gold piece was a flag
rant counterfeit.
Detectives were put on the
strangers trail within a few min

made a hasty disappearance from
the neighborhood. Police Off
GERS have a good description of
him.
