AN ARTISTIC REVENGE.
The Elevator Boy Made Life Miserable
For the Stout Stenographer

For the Stout Stenographer.
The elevator boy was a genius, although
nothing of the kind had ever been charged
up against him. When the fat--that is to
say, stout, for only men and the lower
animals are fat, women of that style of
architecture being invariably stout-when
the stout stenograTher on the ninth floor
repused the admirng advances of the ele-
vator boy, she did not know that she was
laying mine for the destruction of her
peace of mind if not of herself The ele-
vator boy, brooded upon the snubbing no
had received and resolved that he should
be gloriously revenged.
But how as the cheap novels say.
The elevator boy did not know at first,
but the next time the stout stenograpber
entered his car to ride to the ninth floor
an Inspiration came to him.
The inspiration came on a Monday
morning.
At noon of the same day the elevator
boy, shooting downward from the pinnacle
of the building, found the stout stenog-
rapher waiting at the ninth floor to go
down and get her cup of coffee and peach
pie la mode
mine, down" piped the stout stenog-
dignity and politeness the elevator boy
opened the door. The stout stenographer
entered. The moment her foot pressed the
floor of the cage the elevator sank two
inches. The elevator boy closed the door
without word, a glance or a smile, and
the downward journey was resumed. The
three men who were in the dropping box,
however, gazed about with wondering
owl bnir hot,
took in the proportions of the stout steno-
grapher satisfied look came into their
countenances. They understood why the
elevator had dropped two inches under tho
pressure. The stout stenographer colored
rich. antumnal red and looked daggers.
50 bers, hroadswerds ard other cutlery at
the boy. He said no word other than
"Main floor. All out!"
After the luncheon hour the stout stenog-
rapher sauntered into the rotunda of the
big building once more. She had forgot
ten the incident of the two inches. 60
ing up!" cried the elevator boy, and she
accelerated her movement toward the lift.
Four men and two women were inside.
The boy again, with princely politeness,
held the door open. She entered At the
pressure of her foot the elevator promptly
dropped two inches. The four men,
aroused from after luncheon reflections by
the sudden lurch, looked about inquiring-
ly. They saw the stout stenographer and
smiled. The two women smiled with
smiles of even greater dimensions and
duration. The boy was hewn monument
of imperturbahle dignity. The stout ste
nographer glared about her. She half sus-
pected, but could not be certain.
