Oswald's friends were always on the
lookout for some ruse. He once noti-
fled them that on New Years day he
should get the best OF them all In some
joke. and New Years morning each re-
ccived this notice: Remember" They
were on their guard.
AS they were leaving n house where
they had brcakfasted Oswald slipped
on the steps and fell on his back on
the sidewalk. His friends rushed to
his assistance, but paused before they
reached him.
This is his ruse," some one said.
Clearly the man who was so proud
OF his talent for mimicry was bent on
decciving them all into thinking him
dying man, for he lay there moan
ing pitifully. his face drawn and twist
ed rs If with terrible pain.
His friends stood around and made
jokes and puns and hummed lines Of
comic songs. assuring him all the
while that they We're not deceived by
his acting. At last he gave n hoarse,
mournful cry, looked at them sadly
and then ceased to mourn or writhe.
In never to be forgotten moment Of
horror and sorrow his friends realized
that Oswald was dead.-"Souvenirs
