Elderly Gentleman Meant Well, but
He Had Not Allowed for Pos
sibIe Contingencies.

The wisest person may sometimes
make serious mistake by judging
entirely by appearances, as is shown
by this case.
A careless young woman, in starting

young man. who evidently intended to
leave the car at the same time, saw
her drop the purse, picked 1t up and
put 1t into his pocket.
But his action had not been unno-
ticed. Just as he stepped from the
car an elderly man gripped him by the
arm and whispered: IF you don't give
that purse to the young lady this in
slant I'll expose you"
Eyes, certainly" gasped the aston
ished young man. Then, with grin.
81 beg pardon Marie; you dropped
your purse"
ooh, thank you, Harry" she replied.
as she took it,
II hope you are satisfied" said
Harry, turning to the elderly man.
