It came over me most Uncomfortably that maybe I had made my revelations for no thing, besides being flattered into stretch ing them Axiusiderably- by the, stranger's astonished exclamations But no ;at the last moment the stranger handed me a large envelope, and said 'it contained his telserthiemeut ; and that L would find out all about kis-business in it ; and that he would happy to have my custom—would in fact be proud to have the custom-of so prodigious an income ; and, that he used to think there were several wealthy men in Buffalo, but when they came .to trade with him he discovered that they had barely enough to live on ; -and that in truth it bud been such a weary, weary a ,, e since he had seen a rich man face to face, and talked with him, and touched him with his hands, that be could hardly refrain from embracing me—in fact would esteem it e great favor if I wonld let him embrace me. This so pleased me that I did not try to resist, but allowed this simple hearted stranger to throw his arms about. me and weep a few tranquilizing tears down the back of my neck. Then he went his way. As soon as he was gone lopened his tub vcrtisement. I studied it attentively for four minutes. I then called up the cook and raid : " Hold me. while I Lint.
