When Mr. Swissburger makes this discovery he determines to get rid of Jakie as quickly as possible. This opportunity comes when Jakie spills a glass of milk on one of his best customers. He is dismissed. Lena and Jakie meet secretly and the courtship continues. The next afternoon Mr. Swissburger, in looking over the evening paper, reads an account of one Jake Schmidt, who, having saved the life of millionaire Brown, is to become the beneficiary of a large legacy for his bravery. Mr. Swissburger writes Jakie a letter, asking him to come back. Mr. Swissburger receives the following letter: "Mr. Swissburger, I think you are mistaken. I am the Jake Schmidt who saved Mr. Brown's life, but 1 don't know you nor your Lena. Thanks, however, for the cash present. It comes in very handy. Schmidt." It now dawns upon Swissburger that be has blundered. Just then poor little Jakie enters the store wreathed in smiles, but he is thrown out into the street in less time than it takes to tell.
