clearheaded wisdom to decide exactly what

THE GIRL WHO WAITS.

From the Detroit Free r-rss
In street car the other day was a young
man and seven women. The young man
was in that condition known as befuddled.
and as the car rolled along he began to CON-
verse with himself. starting out with:

He spoke so loudly that all I'm the car

The three women were doubly interested
at this juncture, while the other four prick

a good thing.
''She came down-my darling Clara. She
never looked more beautiful She greeted
me warmly-aye! lovingly, and l retained
her hand as led her to the sofa on which
we had sat and passed so many loving

The entire seven women were now so
deeply interested that none of them saw a

voice, and his eyes on his toes, Il put my

The conductor looked in to see seven wo-

traying the greatest anxiety. They were
now SO close to the young man that no one
could hitch nearer.
