Both policies bad been takon from the samo agent. In a fow months after the stable had been insured, it was destroyed by fire. Schmidt quietly notified the agent, and hinted to him that he would axpect the nine hundred dollars at the earliest possible moment.

The agent then notified Schmidt that he would build him a new brick stable. in place of the old frame one; but Schmidt became very indignant at the proposition, saying
