An Adroit Sell.
One day a gentleman called in at the
storeof Mr. Ralph Hardman, with asvio
lin box under his arm. purchased a
necktie, for which he paid fifty cents, and
then asked permission to leave his. box
while he did
, a , • errands down_ town.
Old llaidman--a 'and - sec
ond hand clothing—had
. no. objection.
"It is a 'violin," said gentleman,
which I prize very was giv
en me •by as old,ltalian, who died at •my
father's house. I bog you to be careful
of it, sir." . .
Mr. Fliirdipae promised; and the owner
of the precious violin departed.
Towards - nobii, While the old clothing
dealerwus very deeply engaged in selling
a suit of shoddy for' bang up Prussian TH.
cot, a 'stranger entered the store—a.'.r - e:
markable well dressed man, with a distin
guished look.- The violin box was -in
slight upen a shelf, and as no one was near
to prevent. the new- comer slipped around
and opened the box, and took out the -in- ,
strunient— a very dark hued and ancient
looking one.
" dello !" cried Hardman when be
heard the sound of the viol, " what for
you touch dat, eh ?"
The stranger explained that he was a
professor—that he was a leader , of an or
chestra—and that ho could never see a
violin - withouttrying it. And then he
drew the boiv acro's the s trings, playing
a few passa g es of a fine old German waltz.
3ly soul !" he cried; after lie had run
his fingers over the instrument awhile,
" that is the best violin I over saw !
There's cot a better ene in the city—a
perfectly getiuine old Cremona ! I will
give you a hundred dollars for it."
Hardman said it was not his.
I'll give You a hundred and fifty 1
Two hundred.-
Mr. Hardman was forced • to exploit.
how the violin came to be left in the store
The stranger had taken out h s pocket
book, drawn - forth two hundred dollar
bank notes. He put them back, remark
ing:
I must have that violin if money will
buy it. When the owner returns will you
ask him to wait fur me ? If he cannot
wait ask him to meet me here at six o'clock.
If he.eannot do that, ask him to call at
the efice of the .Treasillrer of the Acade
iibd inquire for-the-Director
of ihe OrChestra. - Will you - do it ? -
Hardman • said hc•would.
But," 'suggested the stranger, you will
not tell the man what I said about his
violin nor what I've offered ; because he
may have an idea of what treasure he pos
ses.' Your will be ,carefuf and circum
spect."
The stranger went away, and Ralph
Hardman reflected. In the course of an
hour the owner of the violin returned,
and askedlor his box. But the shoddy
man had been captivated by the g Iden!
bait.
What would the gentleman sell his VlO-•
lin for ?
At first the gentleman would not listen
to the propos tion, but after a deal of talk
he confessed that he himself was not a pro
fessor, and could not well afford to keep
such a valuable instrument. 'He would.
sell it for one hundred and seventy-five
dollars and not a penny le s.
Ralph Hardniao paid the money and
became the legal possesor' of the violin,
ready to receive anywhere from three to
five hundred - dollars froin the director of
the orchestra, as he might be able.
But the director did not come. At the
cod of a . week Hardman carried the vio
lin to a professional friend, and inquired
of him its real value. His friend ‘,..vamin
ed it, and said:
" Two dollars and a half; without the
box."
Ralph. Hardman . , was strongly . of the
opinon that the gentleman who left the vi—
°Hein his care was a swindler, and that
the, director : was a partner in the business,
anti that, together, they had made 'him
their victim. That night shoddy was
marked up ten per cent.
