A good thing to do under such
circumstances is to take something
like

his hobbies was absolute faith in the

seem to talk OF nothing else. and he
got TO be known as the Rod Crank
One afternoon several years ago
Hsrtshorn sailed forth from his home
and, entering Central park. took his
way to where the McGown's Pass tav-

Hartshorn walk along the path to the
east of the tavern and hold out his
divining rod. Presently he was seen
TO stop and. after looking around to
see II he was observed. stick a small
stake into the grass.
One OF the boys Swallowed him for
the remainder OF the day and told his
father. That night Hartshorn was fol-

they saw the Rod Man hll pail with

Pie crust Ia very indigestible because
