meanor she has been guilty.
1t was in an uptown restaurant where l
had dropped in for lunch yesterday. OPP
posite me sat q young woman OF II
apparently. aud her mother. The young
woman was dressed in the extreme Of
fashion, and that her little turDed-up nose
shifted the air at all appeared purely mat
ter of condescension Oh its part. Her man

The little plaiuly. rustlly dressed mother
carried a black bag such as " omen In Bos-
ton are addicted to. They had been shopping.
/ should say they were people who had
lived in some little town, that the father
had probably earned his living by hard
work and that the mother had done at least
her share OF the skimpinR in order to give
the young lady that elaborate venteerlng
which is deemeed essential TO the girls OF
the day.

reading &, writing and arithmetic, the art OF
making herself Thoroughly dlsagreeable and

The young person talked very rapidly while
masticating her food. She trequently asked
her mother questions, but never waited for
an answer
