Park-Combers."

As the grey dawn breaks each day the men with one of the queerest "occupations in London creep through the gates of Hyde Park, W. They are the "park-com- ber" who search the park for email articles which may have been left there accidentally during the prévious evening: For the most! part, the treasure that they gloan is of. but trifling value.

They say that people are becoming more careful. Bus each morning they experience the never-fading thrill of the treasure-hunter, and thoy never give up hope of 'inding: something really valuable.
