A Customer Who Wasn't
Wanted
scopyrlght.l

Almost invariably, when men fall to
discussing examples of business sa-
gacity, some one present is reminded
of the illustrative incident of the white
tramp and the colored saloonkeeper.
For the benefit of those who have not
heard the story-if any such there be
lit is here and now set forth:
The coIored man sat behind his bar
In moment when trade was slack.
Through the swinging doors entered
the ragged Caucasian.
Give me good fiye-cent cigar" he
ordered.
The proprietor produced box con-
tanning number of malignant-Iooking
dark-brown rolls. The patron made a
discriminating choice and then in the
act of putting the cigar between his
lips checked himself as though struck
with new idea.
SAY, I've changed my mind" he
said. Believe I'll take a glass of
beer instead"
The negro returned the cigar to its
box and drew glass of beer. The
customer drank 1t, wiped his mouth
on the back of his hand and started to
withdraw.
"Yere, hole on, wife man." said the
negro, "you forgot to pay fur dat
beer"
why, l give you cigar for IT."
Eyes. but you amt paid fur de
cigar. neither"
But you've still got the cigar, amt
you? What's the matter with you,
anyhow"
The colored man scratched his head.
''Lemme see, boss" he said, 'ef /
gifts dis thing straight: You don't owe
me for de beer, cause you give me de
cigar fur it, and you don't owe me fur
de cigar cause you handed it back to
me. Is dat right2"
Certainly it's right" said the crafty
white.

man, but say, mister, wants to ak

Urging on the Elements

Neil O'Brien, the minstrel man,
told me that once he landed with q
troupe in a Virginia town barely in
time to give the customary street
parade before the hour of the mat
inee. QUILTED for marching, the
company piled off the train to find
awaiting them at the depot large
reception committee of negroes.
Every darby in the crowd was
anxious to get the job Of carrying one
of the show banners, not alone for
the sake Of the free pass paid in ex-
change for the duty but for the added
glory of taking part in the pro-
cession.
This was a small and struggling
troupe, however. which boosted but
one banner-a large and ornate
square of imitation red silk. A big
negro grabbed it as the property man
passed it off the car, and chung to it,
fighting off all opposition.
AS he started proudly up the street,
with the fagpole resting In the pit of
his stomach, a stiff breeze caught the
banner and it bellied like sail. al

his feet and forcing him to back and
