He was first e.eem coming from Eleventh street, and came as far as tht I city JaH s-riere he tried to gain admit-! tance. Finding it locked he backed or to the etlgw of the sidewalk arwl made a I critical examination of the building There was nothing remarkable about tht old gentleman other than hla gait, wher walking on the spiewalk, bespoke a long residence fn some rough, rural district and was quite adapted to the Nehalcrr roarls. His unkept whiskers, which wer of the luxuriant growth, swept back over tils shoulders at every guBt of wind, ant his e,maclated and bent form would exaci reverence from the most heartlees. Hi wanted to find a drug store the firs' thing and n his rounds tihrough the city would ocraeionally make Inriulrles anfl was ilnvarlaWy told the location of one or other of the three or four drug store In tf.e dry, but on walking a short dlst.tncf Bring Back Monday what you don't like Sunday.
