During the recent Christmas
holidays, a young clerk in one
of the Government departments
grew lonely and sentimental. There
was an old mother ana u young
sweetheart waiting for him to
come back home with a fortune.
He thought about them a great
deal and at last paid a visit to the
poet. For five dollars, he re-
ceived the following, which he sent
West by registered letter:
