CURED HER HEADACHE.
But il Made the Proprietor as Hot as the
EirPcracker


Firecracker.
Times: The pretty, plump, demure
young girl who occupies the cashiers
desk at a Nassau street luncheon room
sat on her elevated perch and rested
her cheek on her hand.
Her forehead was a network of fine
lines, and she had no appreciadve smile
for the clerks and Office boys who had
come to believe lunch incomplete with
out one, and they felt that they had
not their dimes worth.
She raked in the small change as it
was rendered with a perfunctory air,
and one could see she took no pleasure
in her duties.
1t was plain that she had severe
headache, and wanted nothing but
quiet seclusion. a scent bottle and an
easy sofa Men who had had expert
ence with women looked at her and
felt sorry for her.
