Street Fakir.
A street fakir did a good business In
this place selling spoons Frldayevenlng
He advertised a free bIiow and not quite
all the small boys In town were present
to see tho performance, but the only
show there was about It was a lnrgo
amount of cheek and the fakir's ability
to sell spoons. The fellow put on a bold
front to intimidate any person that
might have had an inclination to dls
turb him during the evening. He
flourished a large revolver, blowed
about his skill as a marksman and
promised to give an exhibition In that
line during the evening, but he failed to
do so. The fellow claimed to bo travel
ing through the country advertising
goods for a large silver firm and prom
ised to give every person a spoon free,
and just as he was ready to throw
spoons to the crowd he pretended ho
heard some person say he could glvo
the spoons away, but could not sell them.
He was saucy about tho (supposed) fel
low sticking his nose Intoother people's
business, and just to show him that ho
could sell tho spoons he got a half dozen
or more follows to buy a half dozen of
spoons apiece, with a promlso that ho
would make It all right with them, and
he did so by giving them hack their
money. This was a bait and it worked
successfully. While trying to sell more
spoons he heard the samo smart chap
(In his mind) remark again that he
could glvo the spoons away but could
not soli them, and ho "combed" tho fel
low down In an artistic manner and
promised to point hlra out to the crowd,
but he didn't. Thus the fakir kept
things moving until he had succeeded
in disposing of a large amount of silver
ware. An Honest Man.
