'rhe plan of caisp•ieu as successfully

ant mutual confidences would in the course
of • week or ten .Lys establish quite an
intimacy. The sante policy would be pur-
sued with 00, or two other real state
agents in widely digerati iocaltie•, so as to
avoid my oompliossione, and when the
aslttaintaice was ripe sad the dealer eager
to will, the fernier gentleman would begin
to talk of purchase. "1'.'e got a draft here
on the --National Bank," he would say.
-Now. I'll take this piece of property : pat
you $300 cash, and the balance in 30 days.
Perfectly satisfactory.
4 IIA111:AI' M ane
The dealer agree at once, the 30 days being
in hie eyes as good as cash, since the deeds
remain in his hands until payment of the
fall amount of the purchase money. Then
they go to the real state dealer's bank and
present the draft. It purports to be wade
out by • well-knowu Jinn of bankers ; the
dealer • good hank customer iutroluoes
his friend, the purchaser ; the paving teller
is satisfied ; mks the Purchaser how he
would like payment : the latter prefers
currency. oounts his money .areful)y, pays
over the 1200 stipulates to the real estate
dealer, pockets the net and dlisappeara. .1
week or ten days later the draft is returned

The real estate dealer is quite innaos.t
anti ignorant of any wrongdoing : he be-
ing • goal customer the bank dos not tare
to fall out with him ; they communicate
with the police authorities and °Rorie are
made to locate the farmer gentleman. Ae
the same trick has been played the mane ray
