snld grocer to 11 customer, "I cnn
recommend, for I've wold them for
years."
"What so Interests you In that
brand? You're always trying to sell
them to me, when you know I prefer
another kind. Do you make more on
them?"
"No. There Is a very different ex
planation. Cnmo In hero and I'll tell
you."
And, lending the way to his private
olllce, ho told tho following story:
"One day some years ago a young
woman came In here to buy some
canned goods. I waited on I10T mys. lf.
Those tomatoes were new In the mar
ket then, and I had been offered In
ducements to push them. The girl
didn't appear to know what she want
cd and was a hit Mustered, but tin-re
Bcomcd to bo something about the
label on the tomatoes that attracted
her attention. It covered the can from
top to bottom, and on It was a colored
picture of several ripe tomatoes -Indeed,
the same label that Is used to
day. I sold her a can and a can of
peas, both of which she seemed to
select under the Inlluence of. the labels.
She took them away with her.
"The next day she brought them
hnck, telling me that she wished mo to
uiilii tl 1 with Homo other arth-les
she Intended to purchase. She thru
selected a lot of canned goods-marmalade,
peaches, Jelly and the like
direct Iiil' me to iiack all In one box.
They were to bo sent to her Invalid
brother. In care of n certain person at
a town near tho center of tho state.
Rlio until all chnri!CH and left me to
ship the box when I liked.
"I took an especial Interest In th
girl from the first. She was so pret
ty, so sad, and before she went away
gave me an appealing look which I In
terpreted to mean that she wanted me
to be sure that her brother received
the delicacies In good order. I super
intended the packing myself, and, no
tlclng that the can of peas Indicated
fermentation, I put It aside and got
another. The rest of the goods seemed
to be all right, and I shipped them.
"I left the can of peas In the pack
Ing room till tho next day, when I tool;
It un to nut It away. It had stood all
night near a sink, and some one had
spilled some water over It. I felt the
label slip away and noticed that some
thing had been wrapped tightly under
it. Setting It down on a sheir, I saw
that a lot of small thin saws had been
Holdered around the can.
"You may Imagine my astonishment
My llrst Impulse was to call some one
to see my find; but. suddenly roull'lnt'
that the position In which I was placed
reuulrcd thought before action, I took
the can up to tho top lloor where I
could examine It alone. The saws
were highly tempered and would ctii
rlcht through Iron. Upon reflection 1
HurmlHcd that (he girl had taken title
and thu can of tomatoes home with
her that the Hies might be fixed be
ncath the labels. The tomatoes had
been shipped and would doubtless gi
to some prisoner who would use the
biiwh about them. to cut himself out.
The girl had surreptitiously used our
firm, believing that any goods comlnc
from us would not be suspected.

to telegraph at once to tho prison olll
clals a warning that would protect
mo from intentional complicity. 1 hid
the can with the saws still on It and,
going to the olllce, was writing the
telegram, when, feeling that some om
was looking over my shoulder. 1 turned
and saw the girl who had trapped me.
I had written enough of the telegram
for her to see that her game was up
"There was no one else in the olllce
I stepped to tho door, closed .and
locked It. Kor an hour I listened to a
story with Infinite complications which
portrayed the landing of an Innocent
young man, tho ghTa brother, In Jail
for a crlmo of embezzlement Into
which he had been trapped by the real
criminals.
"The girl, overanxious as to the ship
incut or the goods, had called ostensi
bly for (he purchase of some articles
for horself, but really to ask If the box
had been sent. Seeing me In the olllce
writing, sho had slipped In and, look
Ing over my shoulder, learned the situ-
ntlon. Having told her story, she con
eluded:
" 'I know It has been very wrong of
me to use you In this fashion, but'
'"Do you realize,' I asked, 'that If
the sawH are discovered I inn the risk
of going to prison myself'
"'I did not think of that. 1 wilt con
fess to have done It all myself.'
"I shook my head.
' 'What are you going to do?
"I sat for some minutes deliberating.
Neither of us spoke. There was t lie
usual going on of business outside that

was silent as the tomb. Presently 1
reached for a box of matches, scratch

gave me? No; you can't. Nor can any
artist paint It. 1 saw it but once. 1

Baino woman, but they wore as moon
