At Her Expense.

Not SO very long ago man took {
girl and her chaperon to the theater
Circumstances, it so happened. com
PEELED him to dress hurriedly, and he
thus found himself at the box Office
minus any money in his pockets exoep,
just enough for one seat. This was high
ly embarrassing, Of course, but there
was no help for it, SO the man went tt
the girl and told her his predicament
"Oh, that's all right" said the girl.
II have plenty of money with me, sc
I'll just pay for the other two seats. y
And she handed her purse to the man,
who over and over again thanked his
stars that he was with such practical,
sensible sort Of person.
Now, the play that night was humor-
GUS, distinctly so. 1t did not deal in
horse play, but it relied upon delicate
little subtleties of dialogue and situa.
tion to supply it with fun, which SUBJ
tleties were not, Of course, perceivable,
except to those blessed with very keen
sense of humor. This, however, was just
what the girl with the man was Be-
sides her practical good sense she had
plenty Of humor, and she therefore
found much enjoyment in parts Of the
performance that the man could see no
fun in at all. Perhaps it was that he
was still smarting too much from the
awkward predicament at the box Office
to see fun in anything. Perhaps gull
ty conscience made him suspect that not
all the girls merriment was directed at
the stage-there are times, you know,
when You want to laugh so badly that
almost anything will do to laugh at
but at all events he was ill at ease. At
last the girl broke forth into perfect
peals at something that none Of the rest
Of the audience smiled at. It was the
last straw. Turning to the girl, the man
remarked, I'm afraid you re laughing
at my expense. ''Oh, no, indeed,
said the girl, "Im laughing at mine. "
