Show A New Dodge. A "gentleman" was swelling around a few days ago expanding his credit by contracting debts pretty freely. Everybody and other folk were to be paid by a bank check, for had not the "gentleman" a check-book and a balance at the bank? Clothes, board, etceteras and so forth were ordered, and the handy checkbook check-book was called into requisition. By and by the checks were presented, but the signature appended wouldn't bring the greenbacks, and when this free dispenser of checks came to be sought for, he was non est comeatiuus. Moral: Look out for sharpers. |
