explained. “You take It by the wind

“It looks easy,” admitted Bunkerson.
“1 belleve I'l try IL”
The next afternoon he plowed his
way through crates and barrels that
jeft a tortuous path In South Water
street and rather timorously entered a
poultry commission house.
“1! want to get a goose,” he sald Ww
the salesman who bustied up to him.
“A goose?” repeated the young man.
“Say, what do you think this is—a cor-
per meat market? We sell geese by
the carioad.”
“This Is a special order for one of
my customers,” sald Bunkerson, glibly,
“and 1 don’t want it unless ita wind-
pipe is springy.”
The salesman jooked him over.
“Say, | guess you're in the wrong
shop,” he said at length. “We don't
do any retail business, and I don't
think you do much yourself”
Bunkerton retired in confusion and
sought another establishment
“How much are geese?!” he demand-
ed, with as much nonchalance as he
could muster, when a clerk in overalls
strolled up to him.
“Nine dollars,” sala the clerk, calm-
ly, breaking a splinter off a case of let-
tuce and picking his teeth with It
“What?” demanded the startled pur-
chaser. “Nine dollars? What do you
mean?”
“Nine dollars a dozen,” sald the
salesman. ‘What did you think |
meant?”
“Oh,” sald Bunkerson, “I don't want
a dozen. II only need one. It's 0
fll an order for a special customer and
it has to have a springy neck—I mean
windpipe. My wagon is just around
the corner,” he added lamely, as an
afterthought that might ald In estab-
lishing his business standing
The salesman studied him carefully.
“Say,” he said at Jength, “you're
ope of these plkers that want to come
down here to beat some poor butcher
oul of & few cents’ profit. That's what
you are. [If you'd told me you wanted
a goose for yourseli when you came in
1 wouldn't have cared. What are you
trying to band me about ‘filling an or-
der’ and ‘a wagon around The corner?
There's the door.”
Bunkerson retired from the field with
as much dignity as he could muster
and walked half a block to another
commission house. - He sought the pro-
prietor at oboe.
“If you could oblige me With a goose
I should like to buy one,” he sald. “I
promised my wife | would try to get
one In the wholesale market because
they are so much better”
“Certainly,” sald the commission
man, reaching into a barrel of geese.
Bunkerson stood by while the bird was
weighed and did not mention any
prejudices he might have as (0 the
