"Good morning," the philosopher. "Would you do me a favor," the colored .man asked. . "I'm just out of money,' replied the man from Hatter"s Bay. "Excuse me," was the reply of the colored man. "I did not mean money. I would like to get a bottle of medi- cine. I have lots of mopey now. 1 am in the mining business." "What kind of mining ?"" the philo- sopher was moved to ask.
