ceedingly to climb TO my rest decided
to make the journey i'll one of the
coaches.
My fellow passengers were a diversi-
fed lot. Among them were four men
who were beguiling the miles with
cards. Whist was the game. and the
players were seated together facing one
another. while two or three others We're
intently watching the play. There was
not much talking, and what there was
was carried on in undertones, but it was
altogether too much for n woman of
middle age, dressed i'll n tailor made
suit and wearing standing collar and
fourth hand tie, who was seated near
by. She suddenly arose and stalked up
the aisle to the players.
Gentlemen, she said, Il do not de
sire to be intrusive, hut do wish to go
to sleep, and I'm certain / can't get a
single wink of sleep while you continue
to play whist. l think card playing in
such place is all wrong anyway, hut

it doesn't interfere with my personal

Three of the players dropped their
hands in amaz-mCm'. but the fourth. n
stout man Of an evidently phlccnatic
temperament, held his the more firmly
in his grasp. and without looking up
said:
Say nothing, boys. but saw wood.
Pick up your cards and keep right ON. -
II he thought TO silence the woman
in the tailor made suit that way, he
was vastly mistaken. as he found out a
moment later. His indifference rs to
whether she should sleep or not seemed
to drive her frantic. and she poured out
perfect flood Of indignant clOquence
against the practice of train card play
ing in general and tho current game in
particular. Finally she paused for
breath, and with flashing eyes asked il
her protest was going to be needed,
winding up with the fervent declara-
ton that, in her opinion, the stout man
was mo gentleman.
