You have often heard of collectors
)f coins, postage stamps, old furniture,
walking sticks and othet things, but
1 friend of mine the other day told me
If a chap he knows who has perfect
mania for collecting towels from diff
ferent hotels throughout the section Of
country that he visits. 1t appears that
the collector of towels, although quite
wealthy, has a most active conscience,
md does not pursue the usual plan
and purloin the bath requisite, but
Just before leaving he seeks out the
mnnager Of the hostelry and explains
to dm that he would like to take one
of The towels with him, but that he
wants to pay for 1t. The manager as
rule, is amused and also gratified,
because here appears to be an honest
Individual. so the collector gets his
towels and receipted BILL To say
the least, 1t is a most unusual idea.--
