HOW IT WORKED.—Tho story 1s
told of a man who picked up a pin as
he was leaving the office of a great

hint back and gave him employment,
whirh kindness he repaid by becoming
owner of the business in an Incredi-
bly short time. A Walkerton boy who
read the story tried the scheme on a
local merchant. When out looking .for
work he dropped a pin carefully on the
floor as he entered. He stated his
wants to the proprietor, who not only
had no employment to offer him. but
he remarked to tee boy as he picked
up the pin ; 'Say. 1f you're so Antall
as to steal a pin off the floor, how
much do you think you'd leave in my
till."
