" Of .course , lie wotulcns when. She shuts 'icr fan very slowly and ha knows that , she does not leave the house until qulto late ; so there may be opportunity for further conversation. She returns ( o the window nnd holds her fan closed agalust her right cheek. She feels sad that she must go out tha ! evening away from him. Will her moth er never leave tlni room aud give him nuotlier cliance to approach ? No , to night the mother specially favors the front room. t After awhile the uovlo loses hope of sp'caklug with his sweetheart and en ters a carriage which has alieady passed and repasscd him three or four times , with two friends of his. This coach will be driven past the house twenty times during the evening that he may have at least the pleasure of looking at his sweetheart , lie Is untir ing this tiling has been going on for months.

"There has been considerable sale about the per cent of fare the conductor thinks balougs to him over aud above' his salary , and some very witty things have been said about" It. Iflven the Broadway back platform philosopher has his digs at them , " said a Clevelaud professional man the other day to a 1'laln Dealer reporter. "I once heard of a fellow , much undc the Influence of liquor , who got on the train to go home after cnjoylug himself at a picnic. lie slipped Into a scat aud fell asleep. After the train pulled out the conductor came Into the car anti called 'Tickets ! ' The picnicker was to6 weary to respond , and so the conductor poked him up a little. The fellow roused up , fumbled In one pocket , then another , till dually lie pulled out n very ragged bill and handed It to the con- I ductor. After examining It carefully the latter said : 'Say , my friend , sec here. I can't use this. ' "The passenger pushed himself up on his elbow aud remarked : 'What's ( hlc ) | that you shay ? " | " ' 1 cau't use this , " the conductor ro plled. " 'Well , give It ( hie ) to the comp'ny zcn , ' icmarked the weary but generous- hearted man , dropping back Into the 6cn { , confident ho would be put off al his domination. " Preparing 1'or n Journey. Jerome K. Jerome recalls , with rev erence , a habit of his methodical uncl who , before packing for a Journey , al ways "made a list. " This was the sys tem which he followed , gathered from his uncle's own lips : TaKe a piece of paper , and put down on It everything you can possibly re quire. Then go over it , and see that II contains nothing you can possibly dc without Imagine yourself In bed. What havt you got on ? Very well ; put It down , to- grther with a change. You get up , What do you do ? Wiu > h yourself. What do you wash yourself with ? Soap. 1'ut down soap. Uo on till you have llnlsh- cd. Then take your clothes. Begin at your feet. What do you \ \ ear on your feet ? Boots , shoes , aocks. Put them down. Work up till you get to your head. What do you want besidea clothes ? Tut down everything. Thin Is the plan the old gentleman always pursued. The list made , he would go over" It carefully , to bee that he had forgotten nothing. Then he would go over It again , and strike out everything It wns possible to dispense with. Then lie would lose the list. Bonan Coin pel led to Kxphilii. Mr. Sousa , the march king , wears his uniform at all times and seasons , lie I compels his men to do Hkuwl > e. The fact that he does so leads to exp -rlcncca that arc very laughable to h m. Mr. Sousa was standing In n railway slatlon , on the platform , waiting for n train. A belated traveler ran up to him and shouted : "lias the 0:03 : train pulled out ? " "I really don't know , " answered the man with the blue uniform. "Well , why don't you know ? " shout- wl the Irate traveler. "What are you Htnndlng here for like a log of wood ?
