One of our young ladies had some
what peculiar experience with tramp
the other day. She had just taken q
large and handsome cake from the
oven, had cut a small piece from it and
was congratulating herself upon her
success in the culinary line, when she
heard a rap at the door. Opening it
she found a tramp who asked her for
to eat. She turned to her
cake, cut out generous "wedge"
which she laid upon the top of 1t and
then passed the plate to the tramp.
He deliberately reached out both hands
and took the whole cake, saying rs he
hid so, "This is so large l think I'll
have to have paper to wrap it up in"
Our young lady meekly set down the
empty plate and went and brought the
paper, and stood silently by while the
tramp wrapped up her "lovely" cake
aud walked of with it. 1t Is safe 10
predict that the next tramp who calls
At that house will be asked to partake
