How to Make Money Out of Easy

"I thought I was pretty wise to ah

I've Just been beaten out of a five

Cohoes. A friend and I had boon
standing In tlio doorway of a hotel
betting cn the odd or even numberj of
the next car to pasn, and I was loser.
Then th5 other fehow suggested that I
try to call a coin, bead or tall, for $3,
as a chance to get tr.y money back. I

was a tall, and I was a five out.

t. Anthony and ri't.
St. Anthony Is th- pntron and pro
tector of pigs, and Stow, In his "Sur
vt-y," mentions a curious custom pi'.v
aletit in bis time In the Lonuoa uy.:t
kcts, which has left Its mark in a
proverb. The officers of the market?
slit the ears of starved pls and thns'.
unwholesome for food; around tin
necks of these tbe proctors of St. An
thony's hospital tied bells, nnd set
tbem loose upon the refuse heaps. It
became the habit of people to feed
thoe pigs, and tb anKuals, acouhlni
a knowledge of their benc.'actuis
rould follow tbetri like a dog, whining
for food. Uence the saying, "Ho f ol
lows me about like an Anthony pig'
or "Ha t a Tantony pig," applied ti
t whining beggar or mere hanger-on.
