A Pretty Incident.

The waiting-room at the ferry was
crowded-the "last boat" to Oakland
was expected every moment. AS we
took our seats I noticed a pretty girl
sitting lust in front Of US. Her bon
net was one of the very latest-an ideal
"love''-a bit of lace, few loops OF
ribbon that stood straight up, some
flowers and a bewitching pair Of stream
ers. She was chatting away to her
escort. knew by the indulgent man
ner in which he looked at her that he
was not her husband. He was dis
tinguished-looking. Presently there
was commotion near the newsstand.
Everybody got up to look. 1t was a
policeman trying to demonstrate with
q woman who was walking around
CRYING, with child in her arms. They
were wretched-looking creatures; both
looked frightened, mournful and hun
cry. The woman didn't understand a
word of English. A good-natured
German spoke to them in his mother
tongue; q little fat woman spoke in
Spanish; some one else in Italian
But the poor soul only shook her head
and continued to cry.
"Perhaps I can talk to her." 1 heard
the pretty girl say and to her escorts
very apparent horror she pushed her
way through the crowd.
When she spoke the poor woman,s
face grew radiant. She began to talk
rapidly. Then the pretty girl did a
brave thing. She stepped up on seat
and said in a sweet, tremulous voice:
"She is a stranger. She came from
Honolulu this morning. Her hus-
band promised to meet her in San
Francisco. The horrid man isn't here.
She don't know what to do. She
hasn't cent. This officer wants to
take her to the station. I don't think
we ought to let her 60. Do you L"
She turned her face, beautiful now
in its enthusiasm, all around, as If
seeking an answer from the crowd.
A man wearing Salvation Army
cap cried out:
"Who wants to help pay fora nights
lodging?"
He threw a dime into bis hat as he
spoke. Every one gave something.
AS we were crowding our way up
the ferry-boat steps I heard the pretty
girl say sweetly to her escort, who had
evidently been lecturing her:
"I'm awfully sorry you feel 80 about
it. But, honestly now, just couldn't
help it."-Detroit Free Press.

"Some Day.!

Some day my earthly house will fall,

But this know-my all In all
