NO BUREAU OF INFORMATION
Stranger Possibly Resented Fact That
He Had Been Caused Some lncon-
Venience to Ascertain Time.

On one of tn recent stormy nights
a man was Fastening home with his
overcOat buttoued up to his neck. lie
was rather anxious to know what time
it was, but he was too lazy TO unbut-
ton his coat in order TO get at his
watch
Just then he saw a man OF well
dressed appearance coming in the
distance. and remarked to himself;
TN ask this gentleman the hour OF
the night, and so save myself the
trouble of unbuttoning my coat.
He perceived that the stranger was
buttoned up just as he was. When he
came up. the man who wanted To know
the time touched his hat politely and
said:
Sir, do you know what time it is?
The stranger paused. removed his
right glove, unbuttoned his coat from
top to bottom, unbuttoned his under
coat, and finally pulled out his watch
while the cold wind beat against his
unprotected chest.
! Holding up the watch so that the
| light would shine upon it. he scrutin
! lied It an instant, and said:
Yes"
Then he passed on without another
word.
