He Chung to the Nickel

A woman got into an T street car one
day last week holding by the hand a
sturdy looking youngster. about 5 years
old. After the pair were comfortably
seated, the mother drew from the re-
cesses of a huge pocket an insignificant
looking purse, from whose depth a soil
tary dime was extracted. Thinking to
please her hearts idol, as the young
man evidently was, she tucked it into
his chubby fist, that he might have the
pleasure of giving it to the conductor.
The gift evidently gave great pleasure,
as his hand closed tight over it, and
when the fares were collected no powers
of persuasion or force could make him
yield up his treasure.
The mother coaxed, wheedled, threat
ened and finally slapped the little money
box, but in vain. The infant Rothschild
held Oh with all his might, and at the
first show of force set up heartrending
howl It was evidently all the available
cash of the pair, and when the incident
became embarrassing to the whole car
full through the mother s distress ten
der hearted spectator produced duph
cate coin, and when the mother and son
left the car the triumphant youngster
made his exit, with his fist still clinched
around his money and a demoniac grin
on his face. Washington Star.

Thanks AWfnllY.

He entered a crowded Woodward ave-
nue. car the other morning. and after a
look around he reached out his hand to
a middle aged man and saluted:
GOOD morning, sirl How do you do
this morning?''
GOOD morning." was the stiff reply
of the other, as he looked up with blank
face.
Don't you remember me?'' queried
the man hanging to a strap.
81 can't say that 1 do. -
"That's funny! Six weeks ago last
night was on one of these cars with
Iny wife. You were also a passenger.
The car was crowded, and you got up
and lifted your hat to my wife and gave
her your seat. Don't you remember?''
81 don't charge my mind with such
trifes, !" replied the man sitting down,
and he didn't seem to like the atten-
ton attracted.
Eyes, it was a trife, but triaes show
q mans character. It was the act of a
gentleman, sir-the act of gentleman
Don't you remember of my saying to
you then and there that you were the
only gentleman in the car except rhe?''
The man sitting down began to get
red in the face and move about uneasily,
and the man standing up loudly contin-
ued:
81 said to my wife as we got off the
car: Mary, the man who gave you his
seat may not be rich or famous, but he
is a gentleman, and if 1 ever see him
again shall express my gratitudeP
Yes, sir, you are gentleman, and I
don't care who hears me say so. Will
you get off and have glass of beer with
me?''
''Please drop the matter, will you?''
asked the ''true gentleman as he grew
more embarrassed and uneasy.
"Of course I will, if you say so.
That's the way with true modesty. You
probably didn't think you did an act of
heroism that night, but know, and the
world shall know, that you did. You
could have sat there, and sat and sat and
sat, but you didn't do it. The minute
you saw my wife you got up-so-and
lifted your hat-so-and slniled-so-
and insisted that she take your seat. Did
Caesar ever do the like of that? Was
Brutus a greater hero? One may search
the records of the whole world, sir, and
not find, sir-not find''-
The true gentleman" wasn't in four
blocks of his destination, but he couldn't
stand any more. He rose up, hurried out
and dropped off, and the thankful man
dropped into the seat thus vacated, and
finished:
1.-THE records of the whole world,
and not find another such act of unselfish
heroism. -
