Nick Biel of Dickinson has learned a good lesson. He had just walked in the post office and ppaid {sp} $50 for a bill of goods to Sears Roebuck & Co., and laid his pocket book containing $202.92 on the desk. While he was sealing the envelope, someone took the money and for a time the man thot {sp} it was lost. The money was taken by a joker who afterwards returned it to the man.
