the pathos and humor Of the

,As it the custom, a storage
company had taken over stored
furniture in payment of a bill
and set it up for auction after
removing all papers from dusty
pigeonholes. When the furni-
ture was about to be sold the
owner rushed in frantically de-
manding, not the tables, desks
and chairs, but his papers.
Among them. he exclaimed,
was a letter that would furnish
him sufficient evidence to OBJ
tain q divorce from his wife.
The storage official SenSed
the value of the letter and
charged $135 for the papers,
which the owner willingly paid.
Selling his belongings he
searched them carefully, looked
again, and then dropped mourn
fully on his old desk.
The letter was not there.
