The club was about to adjourn until fall and it was saving money by doing its own pro- grams instead of having them printed. Mr. Nicholas beamed on me as if he were conferring an honor upon me that could never be estimated in letting me get 80 close to his wife’s club as to spend a few hours writing out the club programs!

Will you shut my desk and close the window and sign the letters I left there?” The little stenographer nodded and said no word. “And,” called the bookkeeper, as he poked his head back through the door as he was leaving, “don't forget to put the cat out and wind the clock.” Delmonico Meal. He had heard several old miners who had for many years been living a rough frontler lite discussing what they would do when they had “made their plles” and could return with riches “to the states.” “Well,” gaid the grizzly old veteran, “T know what I'll do.
