Among the passengers was much
overdressed woman. accompanied BY Z
bright-looking Irish nurse-girl, who
had charge of q self-willed, tyrannical
2-year-old boy, of whom the over
dressed woman was plainly the mother.
The mother occupied seat by herself;
the nurse and the child were in the
seat in 'front.' The child gave such
frequent exhibitions of his temper, and
kept the car filed with such vicious
yells and shrieks that there was q gem
eral feeling of indignation. Although
he time and again spat in his nurses
face, scratched her hand, and tore al
her bonnet, she bore it patiently. The
indignation of the passengers was
greater because the child's mother
made no effort to correct him, but on
the contrary sharply chided the nurse
whenever she manifested any tirmnesa
Whatever the boy yelled for the
.a'ther's cry was uniformly, "Let him
have it, Mary"
The child has just slapped the nurse
in the face for the hundredth time, and
was preparing fresh attack, when q
wasp from somewhere in the car few
against the window of the nurses seat
The boy at once made dive for the
wasp as it struggled upward on the
glass. The nurse quickly caught his
hand, and said, "Harry mustn't touch
Bug will bite Harry"
Harry gave a savage yell, and began
20 kick and slap the nurse. The
mother swoke from nap. She heard
her sons screams, and without lifting
her head or opening her eyes called
out sharply to the nurse. "Why will
you tease that child, Mary? Let him
have it'll"
Mary let go of Harry. The boy
clutched at the wasp and caught it.
The yell that followed caused Joy to
the entire Car, for every eye was on
the boy. The mother awoke again.
"Mary," she cried, "let him have it
Mary turned calmly in her seat, and
said, "Shure he's got it. NUM-"
This brought down the car. Every
one in it roared. The child's mother
rose up in her seat with jerk. When
she learned what the matter was, she
pulled her boy over the back of her
seat, and awoke some sympathy by lay
ing him across her knee and warming
him nicely. In ten minutes he was
quiet and as meek as little lamb, and
never opened his head until the train
reached Jersey City.-Erchange

was almost unbearable made up my
mind to put myself in his hands rather
than endure it any longer. He was &C

the other end of it with all his might,
expected to see the tooth fly into the
