MRS. TUT BOFFlN'S PARTY.
The German Lady Was Not Invited and
Spoiled the Social Function.

The German Lady Was Not Invited and
Spoiled the Social Function.
When little Mrs. Tut Boff1n, recently
married, moved into the Misery flats, she
arranged to give an impressive social func-
ton. That affair was to have taken place
last night, but a grand coup by the lone
German lady who lives in the basement
caused an indefinite postponement Of the
party. Still Mrs. Bofiin is not sorry that
she neglected to invite the spiteful, mean
creature. So there, now!
The main idea of the party was to i'm
press the other flatters with the impor-
tance of the Boffins and their social con-
nections. Little Mrs. Tut had sort of
catch as catch can acquaintance with a
millionaire contractor who lived in his
own house on the corner, and he was ju-
diciously billed as the lion of the evening
The man who revels in whole house Is
regarded with mingled feelings of venera-
ton and respect by fiat jewellers every
where and on their account the diplomatic
Mrs. Boffin invited the entire population
of the Misery flats with the exception Of
the German lady in the basement. There
was no special reason for overlooking this
estimable person, nor could the Boffins
conjure up an excuse for asking her to the
feast. So they totally ignored the German
lady
"Once l will even get NIT her, alretty
yet, murmured the sighted one as tales
Of vast preparation on the top floor were
carried to her by considerable flatters who
had been invited.
AS the hour for the function drew near
last night an aroma of back number sauer-
kraut, hot and steamihg, filtered through
the building. The odor came in fleecy,
greasy banks like fog and hung dripping
from balustrades and walls. The hall
lights blinked dimly in the suffocatng
mist and the flatters gasped and choked in
their rooms
One by one the outside guests arrived
and fought their way upward flight by
flight, but none of them reached the Boffin
apartments on the top floor. The million
aire contractor did struggle to the landing,
but got stuck in the stencil which was sc
dense between the ceiling and the floor as
to be almost visible to the naked eye.
With Il stifled wall the millionaire faint
ed dead away and was rescued by couple
of robust flatters, who said it was an out
rage and a shame that Mrs. Boffin, after
all her boasting and swell pretensions
should invite decent people to a sauerkraut
banquet and then cook the beastly stuff in
her own rooms. Itwas perfectly ridiculous
Not a single card was presented at tht
Bofffn portal, The preliminary symptoms
in the hall threw off such a flavor that tho
guests fled in horror. All that night pool
little Mrs. Tut wept and tore her hair ant
moaned.
"Oh, that awful Dutchwoman in thu
basement Wouldn't like to pitch hel
head first into her own vile sauorkraut pot
The wretch! Oh! Oh! Ohp'
Down in the basement the vindictiv,
German lady lifted the deadly pot from thu
stove and chuckled:

The time was when Il was not con-

In Paris the stranger or newcomer

a sudden impulse or blow-such a. a
sudden volcanic outhurst, sudden
cracking OF mass Of rock In a state

from water In n spheroldal state. or
