"I don't know you, young lady," he said severely, "and I ain't in the habit of picking up with women folks on the street." "That's all right, dad," said the girl, who was dressed in along pony coat and pioture hat, And then to the old farm- er's great einbarrassment, she threw her arms around him and hugged him. "Go away young woman," said Hum- phrey in great indignation. "I've got a wife and grown-up children baok in Seaforth, Ont., and I can'thave Bich goin's ob." The young woman, however, hugged the farmer tighter and then with a glad. some peal of laughter, loosened her hold, booked away and waved her hand. "Bye.bye, dad," elle said gaily, "see yon again some time." Right away Quinion became suspic- ious and "frisked" himeelf. He found that a roll of $50 in bills, which had reposed in an inside pocket before he met the girl, had dicappeared. Also missing was a new pine, which ha had bought to replace an old corn cob pipe which he had smoked for years, "And to think that she even took any pipe," said the old man at police head- quarters Tuesday morning.
