He was lying full length "on the
grass down on the lake fiont, in the
blazing imondity sun, and everything
about him encouraged the impression,
that he was a tramp. His clothes
were ragged and unkempt, and sam
ples of real estate from a dozen States

his person. When a 'reporter ape

"Do you like tramping?"
"I course I does. Think I'd do it
