When the timid-looking man go* out of the barber chair after being shaved he fumbled in one pocket after another while the porter dusted his clothing. "Well," he said, with a note of as? tonishment in his voice, as he plunged his hand for the fourth time into his right trousers pocket and felt around. "That's funny. I thought I had a quarter in that pocket." He repeated the search of his other pockets, while the barber who had shaved him leaned his elbow on the back of the chair, crossed one leg over the other and eyed him suspiciously. "Guess I must've lost it," said the timid-looking man as he put his right foot up on a chair and began to roll up his trousers leg. The barber wink? ed at the artist in charge of the chair next to his and moved nearer the razor case. The man rolled and pulled bis trousers leg above his knee, and by that time every one else in ihe shop was watching him with intense inter? est. They saw that he wore a woman's black stocking. Just above his knee he wore two garters, one about four in? ches above the other. He slipped the upper garter down, rolled down the top of the stocking carefully, and there were several Treasury notes lying spread out flat against the undercloth? ing that covered his leg. "What do you carry money In that way for?" asked the barber as he hand? ed the man change for the ?5. "Footpads," was the laconic reply of the stranger. How They Got Rich.
