Old man Greenhut gazed at the pre- sumptuous man who ventured thus to call his utterance in queswon and for a moment It seemed likely that he would retort with some heat, but after a moment or two he sidghed and shook his head. “I reckon ‘'tain't no use, Pepper,” he satd, mildly. ‘T ¢'d say to you like that there prophet done sald to his son, ‘Get onderstandin’,” but you wouldn't know where to go for to get It an* you wouldn't know what to do with 1t if you had it. “No, Pepper, th' ain't no use o' you but- tin' in when you hear somepin' sald what you don't know about.

Not all the time you won't.” This kindly admonition in place of the fierce denunciation and threats of violence to which he was accustomed orushed Mr. Pepper’'s spirit utterly and he was not heard again for a long time. Old man Greenhut, however, talked on as briskly as if he had not been interrupted. Stands to reason,” he said, “as how a man can't play poker proper 'thouten hs has a consid’able onderstandin’ o' mo' things nor a ordinary man knows nothin' about. Take that there story about the feller out into a western mining camp what lald down fo' aces 'thouten a bet.

Say, what was they playin'? Must ha' been croquet or somepin’ like that. Fo' aces! An’ lald ‘em down!

And they gained the impression that he was having difr Before he spoke, however, the door and a small stranger entered. Advancing toward the bar with a curlc sideways motion and an Indescribable « of self-offacement he addressed old mun Greenhut, whom he seemed to recognize the proprietor. “How much does it cost a man to got & bite o' whisky here?” he sald in & stage whisper. “One bit Greenhut, of profit look great.

I'd just admire to ast the crowd, but I haln't got the price. Just gimme ono bite.” And he put a dime and three peu- nles on the bar. Old man Greenhut set out a bottle and #lass and picking up the dime put it in the cash drawer, lgnoring the cents. & this, the stranger took them back and put them In his pocket. “They may come in handy if T ever go no'th ag'in," he sald with & shametuoed “You'uns don't know how hard he continued. “I reckon th' on'y thing I ¢'n do is for to sell & hoodoo charm I got, It I ¢'n find & poker player tu buy it." “What sort of a charm you got? asked Jake Winterbottom, with some curlosity, “I wouldn't mind buyin' of t, If ‘twas any good.

The little man took the deck, and after glancing through it, as If to mes whether It was a regular deck or not, began shuf- fiing. He was so awkward at this as ta provoke the smiles of the others, and once or twice he fumbled the cards so badly that he dropped several of them, but pick~ ing them up agaln he continued to shuf= fle till the others grew impatient, Finally he offered them to Bassett, who cut them, and then proceeded to deal. It seemed impossible, so awkward he was, that there could be anything crooked about it, and even Blaisdell, who was watohing keenly, failed to detect anything wrong, but when they plcked up thelr hands, each man looked surprised. reckon yo' cha'm didn't work thiw time," sald Jack Winterbottom with a grin as he showed an ace full “That beats me,” said Blalsdel), showing a four flush, “but mebbe I ¢'d stack up ag'in the dealer a'ter the draw.” Then they found that Bassett had kings up, Pearsall a high straight and Green- hut four tens. . “HIt sho' does Took Ifke that thers gharm¥ done went back on me this time,” sakl the stranger, as If overcome with mortifica- {tion, “but I donno.
