the prettiest girl in the car, and, finding

for him before he could get his tongue
unkinked. ''Most bewildering day,
isn't it?''
'tYe-yes," stammered the drummer.
He wasn't in the habit of playing pitcher
in this kind of match, and the position
of catcher didn't fit him as tightly as his

''Nice weather for travelling" con-

very comfortable, thank your and the
poor drummer looked helpless.
Your scarf-pin is coming out. Let
me fix it. Therew and she arrayed it
deftly. "At the next station I'll get you
cup of tea, and when we arrive at our
destination you'll let me call on you?"
and she smiled an anxious prayer right
up into his pallid countenance.
IT think I'll go away and smoke, said
the drummer, and hauling down his
gripsack, he made for the door, knee
deep in the grins showered upon him by
his fellow passengers.
Stranger murmured the girl to the
lady in front of her, 81 only did with
him just what he was making ready to
do with me, and, big and strong as he is,
he couldn't stand it. [ really think

men, and, besides that. there isn't any
smoking car for them to fly to for refuge.
I don't understand this thing
