One nice thing about prohibition Is that a newspaper reporter is almost certain t' remember what wuz said at a banquet. The following is from the Cochran-ton Times Ever since Thursday, circus day at Meadville, Constable Orrin Heuth has been greatly troubled because it seemed necessary for him to deceive a man. Ou Wednesday evening he was notified there was a stranger -at the Ideal Restaurant who required some attention, and on investigating fouud a man about '1 years of age, mentally deficient, could sing and. dance and would eat everything given him. Mr.

Heath concluded he was fin inmate of Polk Institution who had run away, and bis answers to questions showed that he had walked to Cochrauton and and was on his way "to Join the circus," Orrin told him that was a good place to go and if he stayed here all night he would take him to the show In the morning. This greatly pleased the visitor from Polk and be gladly accepted lodging in the best rtxjin of our city building. When Mr, Heath carried breakfast to his room the next morning lie said ho had the finest kind of sleep, and later it was found that after eating breakfast he went to sleep again. It was only necessary for the constable to tell him he would never see the circus if he missed the morning train, in order to get quick aciiou from a happy young man. On their way to the station they were hailed by Ray Cunningham with the inquiry "Are you going to the circus, Orrin?" "Sure said the officer, ami his willing prisoner remarked; "He wants you to take Win, loo, don't he?" "Yes," said Heath, "but I'm not going to do it this time." They boarded the train, but it went to Franklin instead of Meadville.

A telephone message had been sent to Polk, and the institution bus was waiting at the Franklin station. Mr. Heath says he will never be able to forget the change-In his man's face nor the look bo gave him when he recognized the Polk bus. The transformation from happiness to misery could not have been greater if he had been expecting to step Into heaven and fell into the other place. "What's a Wife Worth? By William Christy Cabannes.
