calendar and had his attention directed to
the sign. Before leaving the store he sly
~ cut away the word mo" Before the
deed was discovered by the proprietor he
was overrun by q horde seeking calendars
and CD making the discovery Of the
change he vowed vengeance on the perpe
traitor of the joke. Accordingly one night
shortly after midnight he rang the door

bill jingling until a felna lie voice asked
what he wanted He replied that he de-
sired to see (naming the man of the
house, at once, Said individual crawled
from his warm bed after being hastily
called by his wife. He hurried to the
door to be told by the storekeeper that
he now had some calendars. and If he
would call the next morning he might
have one. Both parties consider the ac-
count as squared.
