Ling examined the tag and again the
smile as he said: Forty dollars
Nan looked approvingly at Tom,
whereupon he whispered to Nan, who
nodded an assent.
Nan, who now was radiating the
happy cheerfulness that so becomes a
bride, cast a smiling glance at Tom and
then turning to Ling, said:
Show me some ivory, please"
Ling at once went to the center coun-
ter Nan, looking through the glass,
spied the ivory ri1ishas. Ling placed
them on the top along with paper cut
ters, elephants, sampans and cigarette
holders. Tom, examining q holder, in
quired of Ling: "These are all real ivory,
of course?"
"All proper" replied Ling.
At that moment the door opened and

Ling bowed a temporary taking
to his prospective customers and walked
over to Miss Tubbs, the missionary, who
was ready to hand him the clock she
had unwrapped. Ling took the clock as
if he knew it was to be left for repair
and waited resignedly for the complaint.
Miss Tubbs without preliminary began:

Nan was growing enthusiastic. She
had a special fondness for jade.
"How much?" she asked Ling, hold
ing the piece toward him. Ling looked
closely at the characters on the tag and
handing it back replied with a smile:
"Eighty-fve dollars"
To Nan it was worth considerably
more than that, according to Fifth Ave
nue. standards. To Tom, who did not
pretend to know values in a iewelry
shop. it was worth whatever his bride
cared to pay. He was not, however, so
carried away as to fail to remember
Mrs. Partridge's admonition on the ship
that one would be foolish indeed to pay
a Chinese his first asking price So, al
though it went against his American
spirit to haggle over the price Of an
article his wife was keen on having, he
looked Ling directly in the eye and
rather sharply said:
Come. how cheap will you sell it?'
Ling smiled blandly and in a gentle
voice said
Him very fine Eighty-tive dollars

Tom retorted: ''We expect to make
other purchases and you must make
cheap price" Whereupon Nan spoke:
"Yes, we will probably buy other
things. Show me, please, some amber
beads"

duced from the interior two long

MISS TUBBS, looking somewhat re-

turning to leave, said audibly, talking to
herself:
I'll have to borrow clock from some
one
To this matter Of fact drama Nan
and Tom had been listeners-also they
had again conversed in subdued tones.
Finally Nan remarked:
just as you say, dear; only I would
not want to miss our chance Of buying
them
Lets risk it." said Tom. 1--WE can
always come back"
Ling had rejoined them and with that
same smile upon his face-a smile that

means nothing Ling stood there, silent,
waiting his patrons pleasure, voicing
no praise of his wares nor suggesting a
purchase. Tom made the first move.
and gathering together four pieces of
jade, the two strings of amber beads
and from the center counter several bits
Of carved ivory. pushed them toward
Ling with the remark:
How cheap will you sell all these TO-
gether?''
Ling commenced to study the tags,
Tom interrupted:
"Of course you guarantee everything
to be genuine"
Ling looked up: "All number ona
chou"
"All right said Tom. "Now make a
good cheap price"
LING turned over the tags Then
reached behind him for the square
wooden frame with round counters on
rows of wooden spindles and began
clicking them up and down. Shortly he
finished and, looking at Tom, said
Three hundred forty dollars, proper
price"
Tom hesitated a moment, then:
Make it cheaper than that"
Ling said, with the old smile ''Noc can
do Three hundred forty dollars proper
price" Nan smiled an approval toward
Tom.
Tom was silent a moment and then
said, deliberately: 'Ill give you three
hundred dollars for the lot"
Nan suppressed q gasp.
Ling replied gently: "No can do"
Tom was becoming impatient He
picked up the amber beads and putting
them down showed them toward Ling,
saying firmly: "Ill give you S310 for
everything. That's proper price"
Again from Ling: "No can do. Three
hundred forty dollars proper price"
Tom countered once more: - es can
do. It's all I'll give"
Ling, equally firm, yet with ii touch
Of gentleness, repeated: "No can do
I'm sorry" said Tom, ard then he
played his last card He took Mans arm,
saying boldly: Come, my dear, as he
won't sell at a reasonable figure we'll
go to the other shop
MAN appeared reluctant to leave, but

on her arm and she started with him
toward the door. Tom called back to
Ling: Three hundred ten dollars, lasG

There was no answer. Tom had
opened the door and they were crossing
the threshold when from the shadows
came softly to their ears two words:
Can do
Immediately they We're back at the
COUNTER Nan all smiles and Tom looking
quite scl1-satistied, while Ling, h.s
beady eyes glistening, displayed the
same bland smile. AS the packages were
handed over, Ling, still smiling re-
marked: Plenty cheap"

Hawkes. with this rat-trap looking
affair under his arm and disappeared
in the direction Of the tailor.
Ling, standing again against the rear
counter, looked with an eXpressionless
countenance toward the street, and
whatever were his thoughts they were
not upon electric heaters. In a few
seconds he walked behind the counter
to a small table, and, sitting upon low
stool, glanced over some accounts or
and bound crudely together in book
form.
He was sitting thus when again the
shop door was opened and III walked a
couple. Any one would have guessed
them Americans, and on a second
hazard added bride and groom. The girl
was perhaps twenty-six, good height,
with hazel eyes, brown hair and round,
red checks. Her sport suit of deep
brown gave no indication Of her figure
Her short skirt readily disclosed brown
woolen hose set into D. pair Of well-lit-
ting tan oXfords. But that would have
caught the masculine eye was the snap
with which she wore a brown sailor

neck, caught snugly under the chin. She
gave the impression of being all bundled

The beads were clear and rich in color.

from the stool, seemed to glide out from
the shadows into the center of the room,
where he faced them with a smile. The
American spoke:

Mrs, Partridge who says you are re-

'Want look see jade"
''Yes, we want look and if you make

November "Perfect
Package" Month

A nation wide Perfect Package
movement will be conducted by the
railroads, steamship lines and ex-
press carriers of the United States
and Canada, during November, which
will be known as the Perfect Package
month. The shipping public of this
city will be asked to cooperate in the
campaign.
An announcement to this effect
was made today by joint committee
of local transportation men, composed
of Mr.. r. =. Mccarthy, representing
the American Railway Express Com
pany and Mr.. N. ID. Taylor represent
ing the Pere Marquette Railway Co.,
and Mr.. j. Kit1mller representing
the Ann Arbor Railway Company.
This committee has taken the matter
up with the Chamber of Commerce,
and arrangements have been COM
pleted, TO enable the shippers Of this
city to make good showing in the
movement.
The purpose Of Perfect Package
month is to enable the carriers to aid
shippers in their packing problems,
and to help improve the transporta-
ton service to the country.
During November the railroads,
steamship lines and the express COM
panies will examine the condition of
all freight and express shipments and
record the faults Of shipments which
do not come up to the general CLASH
fication of Perfect Packages.
Special report blanks for freight
and express will be made out for ev-
cry shipment that is found wanting
in some detail of good shipping and
these reports will be sent to the ship
pers Of the packages. A summary of
all exceptions found during Novem-
Der will be submitted to the city
Chamber Of Commerce which will CO.
operate for examination and tabula-
ton.
At the close Of the movement, the
record of each city during Perfect
Package month will be tabulated and
published broadcast. The leading
city will be exploited, because OF It's
perfection in shipping methods.
