Hard Luck.
" I think I'm the unluckiest man in town," said a husband to his wife. " Smith has owed me $20 for three months.-and he promised to pay me to-day." " Didn't he pay ?"' she asked, anxiously. "Yes, he paid, but while he was in the aot of giving me the money Brown came in— you know I've owed Brown $20 for more than a year — and, of course, I had to tarn the money over to him. That's what I call hard luck."— New York Sun.
