A ErUffl-felEing Story.

The following is the conclusion of
touching sketch which appears in the
Boston Herald:
The proprietor was vexed. He tossed
the shirt to his customer and said " Sir,
you simply insult me when you affirm
that this garment is not clean-that it
has the least stain upon it. You can
leave my store, sir. | do not desire to
see you again"
There was singular CLEAN in the
eyes of the customer as he dashed the
bundle upon the floor, where he trampled
it. He exclaimed in frenzy, at IS
stained-damnably [ saw pale young
woman stitching it for small price-for
half price-for almost no price. Her
tears fell fast and scalding upon it, 1t is
we'll you say you can make it no winter
by your washing; for those tears which
we're the blood of soul are stitched into
every seam. [ cannot wear 1T would
burn my bosom like fire. 1t was her
last shirt; you have driven her forth and
she now walks the path that leads to hell,
every day. She's Broadway prostitute
No, no, no, you can't wash it out; you
can never wash it out! -a
"Poor lunatic," said the proprietor, 1
thought all along this man was crazy J"
and he went Immediately for an officer,
to have his troublesome customer removed
to lunatic hospital.
