' WHAT HE WENT AFTER.
The Office Boy Gave the Businsct Call
er Some Information.
The big bell In the city hall tower
had Just banged forth the noon hour,
and the office buildings wero emptying
throngs of workers into the streets to
fill the lunchrooms.
In an elaborate olHce, seated In a
large chair, with his feet comfortably
resting on the edge of the manager's
desk, was Plugsy. the office boy of
Janworth & Co., brokers, says Llppin
cott's Magazine. His head was cocked
on one side, and with evident relish
I he was puffing a huge cigar which his
[ employer had neglected to finish.
Suddenly the door opened, and Mr.
! Whiff, a client of the firm, rushed In.
"Where's Mr. Janworth?" he de
manded excitedly.
"What's that?' said Plugsy, slowly
removing the cigar from the far corner
of his. mouth.
"1 want Mr. Janworth right away.
Whtire Is he?" repeated Whiff."
Just them the bell -of a tire engine
clanged below, and Plug9y .leisurely
rose and walked to the window.
"Gee," he said thoughtfully, "people
do git skeqred o' them fire carts, all
lifek all rlHit!" Turning around, he
