He Took His Hat of.

He was only poor little messenger
boy.
When the young woman stepped into
the elevator on the first floor, it was
crowded with men and the poor little
messenger boy.
In an instant the boys hat was in his
hand.
Rather in a shamefaced way all the
men in the elevator followed suit.
The young woman was not handsome,
but was dashing looking and seemed
self possessed. She was neatly attired
in fashionable bicycle suit.
"You are little gentleman of the
old school," she said to the messenger,
with a smile of appreciation.
The boy looked up at her, took the
message he had to deliver out of the
crown of his hat, put the hat back on
his head and commenced to whistle. -
