THEY ARE STRANGERS Nova
Middletown young lady never tires of
relating an amusing occurrence of the
sleighing season last winter. She was
enjoying ride in company with two
Hartford gentlemen and che was
driving. One of the gentlemen slyly
inserted hand in her muff and low
ingly pressed her disengaged hand.
She blushed and withdrew it just as
the gentleman on the other side
slipped his hand in the muff. She
knew by the action of her adorers
that the hand pressures were frequent
and loving within the silk lining OF
the muff, for first enc face and then
the other would bob forward to catch
look at the sweet face and eyes
which prompted, as they supposed,
the tender pressure of the hand. The
by-play lasted until the young lady
quietly remarked: "If you gentle
men are through with ny muff will
trouble you for it now, as my hands
are getting cold" And tho two gen.
tlemen who had been comfortably
warm up to this time, suddenly felt
an Arctic chill creeping up their
spinal columns, and tie mercury of
their feelings dropped to 100 degrees
below zero. The two gentlemen are
strangers now.
