THE OLD SWIVEL CHAIR

HERBERT E. RIEKE

One night a student of Christian Science dreamed he possessed an old swivel chair that he desired to trade in on a new one. He took it to a large department store, but each clerk he talked to passed him on to another clerk. Finally, the manager informed him that the store did not want his old chair.

"Well, I'll just leave it anyway," said the dreamer, "because I don't want to carry it back to my car."

"No! No!" replied the manager. "You can't leave it here because we don't want it cluttering up our store."
