BIT OF HUMAN NATURE. "
k IlMtj Connlnalon About ■ Woman That
Wma f handed Later.
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.
