After hoaiing ^Torn's story through to the end, he asked him? i ' "lias your neighbor got any writing to show that you owe him this JP 2fty dollars ?" ' ".Divil a word," replied Tom, quickthen,, if you haven't the uTottey} you can take your ewn timo; at all events he cannot collect it by law." "Thnnkyer honor, much obliged," said Tom," rising and going to the door. "TTnld on. mv friend." said the lawyer. "Vat for?" asked Tom, in astonisht pent. .' You owe me two dollars." ' Vat for?" "Why, for my advice to be sure. You don't supposo I can livo by .charging nothing, do you ?" Torn scratched his head a moment in evident perplexity, for ho had no money, At last an idea seemed to strike him : "An" have yees any paper ter show that I owes yees two dollars?" he asked, with a twinkle in his eye.
