Washington City girls have the reputa-
ton of being the most superstitlous IN the
world. Their latest freak is collecting car
fares, a certain number of which means a
new dress or iewelry, or even a husband.
The dear creatures get ~ near the fdre
box az possible, and will hold up their
pretty gloved hands to pass up every fare.
Unfortunately the man Is sometimes too
gallant to permit this service, and then
the young lady pouts, because she consld-
ers the negation means a disappointment
for her. The exact number of fares signi-
fying "a present" is twenty-four. and a
smart girl who likes to ride in public We.
hicles can easily take up that amount in
two or three rides.
