"Kct long ago I went over the Ches apeake and .Ohio road and when tbe train reached South Portsmouth, which is across the river from mynativo'place, quite a long stop was made,' Most of tho male passengers got off the train and walked up and down tho platform.

Of course I could tell him, and I threw out my chest and with considerable pride said: 'That ia Ports mouth, O. I la to you ever, boen there? My fellow traveler in a very weary voice, replied; 'Yee, I have been there. I spent about two weeks there one aft ernoon.'

The conversation was of course brilliant, and the repartee sparkled with mirth and wit. During a lull in the talk the door slowly opened, and an old southern darky, m grizzled with age, poked his head in and then slowly drew his body in after him. A waiter started to eject him, when ono of the gentlemen cried: . ''Wait a moment. Let's seo what the old boywants. " . . . The darky bobbed up to the . table where this gentleman sat and held out his hat. Throwing a wink to his neigh bors, the gentleman took the hat and, making a show of placing something into it, passed it on to the next man, who did likewise. The bat made a tour of the room, to the puzzled wonder of rtJ:,ru Tli ti h I m emnly handed it back with a polite the darkv. The last to receive it sol dow, raying: "There, sir, don't you think you have something to be thankful for?" The old darky looked solemnly around the company and, mechanically taking the hat, he 6aid: "Gcn'mcn, I'ze indeed glad dat I got chen do hat backl" The reply was so thoroughly enjoyed by the company that the darky lefl the placo a much richer man than when he had entered it, Kansas City World.

"I 6ee my 'troubles endless to come. I can't get my money to pay. I am help less. During last three years pver 36 creditors support my business.
