AT HER WORD.
Mrs. Cobb decided to spend a day with a friend. Her grocer had not called by the time she was ready to leave, so she wrote on a card: "All out. Don't leave anything," and tacked it on the door. Upon her return at night she discovered that the house had bedil ransacked. On the card which she had left on the door these words had been added: "Thanks; we've taken all but the piano; that was too heavy."
