Two little girls occupied seats to pethiT on an elevated train the other light. Both were scantily dressed, hoi ow eyed and hungry looking. They were lumistakahly of that class known as ‘ca.-hgirls" employed in the down ;own department stores, for eaoh ad Iressed the other by a number in lieu ef i name. Directly opposite them sat a fashion ibly dressed woman who was accom panied by a well groomed male escort. Upon their entranoe the conversation of ;he little girls stopped abruptly and here was something pitifnl in the ear lestness with which both watched every nove of the woman so stunningly {owned. Two pairs of abnormally keen though tired eyes thoroughly investi {ated overy bit of finery in her apparel, from the highest plume of her hat to the soft, nutty shoes which incased her ibapely feet. “Huy, 76,” whispered tho smaller of the two girls, leaning toward her com panion, “she's a real lady, sho is. You san tell by her make up. Ain’t that a beaut of a hat, though? And look at that diamond breastpin I Whewt I’ll bet tlmt hat cost all of”— ”Sh 1” interrupted 76 in an under tone. "kJhe'll hoar yon. ” There was a apell of silence as both girls leaned back with their heads resting against the top of the seat. They were enjoying the dazzling picture before them. After glanoing over a section of a newspaper which the man bad given hi<r t >i*a wnninn fnlrlftfl it. nn itnrl handful It back to him. “Did you got the tickets?” she asked. • ‘ Ycm, ' ’ was the answer in an indiffer ent tone. “Let me see them.” He extracted a small envelope from bis vest pocket and handed it to her. "By tlie way," he remarked, “we will have to go tonight. I couldn't get good seats for tomorrow, and rather than miss it I took these.” "Tonight?” she repeated In a tone of vexation. “Yon know well enough that we can't go tonight We have another engagement”— “Which we can conveniently can cel,” he interpolated. "Indeed we will not,” she retorted, with a determined stamp of her toot A protracted argument followed which was not too low for the oashgirls to learn the drift "You oan go to Mrs. Brown’s alone,” finally exclaimed the man, "and I will take your mother to the theater I Wo oan call for yon on our way home if you insist on going. ’ ’ “You'll not go to the theater with anybody. You must and will go to Mrs. Brown’s with me. ” Thns assert ing herself, she deliberately tore the en velope containing the tickets in minate parts and threw them on the floor. They left the train at the next sta tion, be with a disgusted look on his faoe and she with head erect and a de fiant glare In her bright eyes. Scarcely had the rustle of her gar ments ceased to be heard when 70 sage ly observed: “you're all off, 87. She ain’t a real 1 dy. It's only her fine duds what makes \ ou think so. She’s only an imitation, cud no clerk would take her to a window if Mho wanted to make a sale."—Boston Herald. ■■ '■ ” * The Terrapin Knew Him. When the late Major Moses P. Handy lived in Washington, he was frequently attending dinners at Ohamberlin's. At every dinner at all out of the ordinary it was Chamberlin’s habit to paw aronnd the table alive the terrapin that (it was assumed) the guests were to oat later. One night, as Major Handy told the story, when the live terrapin ware brought in, as usual, he notioed, aa he thought, one of the terrapins wagging bis head at him. At the next banquet the sanie thing happened again, and at the next one of the terrapin detached himself from the reat and, crawling across the table to the major’s plate, rose on his hind legs, and, resting his fore legs against a convenient tumbler, he bowed three times, solemnly; bnt courteously, to the astonished and awe struck gnest. Upon investigation it was disoorerad that tho terrapin had seen the major so frequently at Chamberlin’s festal board that he recognized him as an old friend and politely addressed him as snoh. Mr. Chamberlin is said to have resented this story as a reflection on the freshness of his terrapin.-—Kansas City Journal.
