his thoughts of grief suppressedin toll; but, for some, :
even to himself, unknown reason, his feet did not
move, nor did his hands, head or body. The jokes,
w~histling and singing had opened his wounds, he
was almost overcome with grief. A harsh voice
soon brought him out of his lethargic state. )
whats the matter with you, are you blind? !.
Can't you see to put in a sleeve better than that,
upside DOWN." said the young man, who took the
shirt in his hands and began pouring forth his whole !
vocabulary OF insulting, vulgar expression to recall
him to his senses.
Deeply stung, Ephraim jumped up, casting a
wandering gaze on all sides, where he met laughing !.
faces, all directed at him, he became confused.
"Give it to NELL fix it, he said, in a scarcely
audible tone. Then, seeing that the Dung man was
watching him repair the sleeve, he said: "Do you
know-that my son died-last week" .
80? Well, what of that? Must you therefore
put in the sleeve upside down? Fix it, hurry up, I've
got no time to bother with you" and he walked ],
away.
Useless were all Of Ephraim's attempts to drown
his grief in his work; his mind revolted, affecting his
physical health, and he gradually grew weaker. AT
five o'clock the proprietor came up to him and told
him that his shop was not spacious enough to give
place to "dreamers and lazy bones and ordered him
to take away the machine Immediately.
Two hours later, Ephraim entered the room where
he passed his nights. He placed the machine in the
corner and sank down on one of the chairs. At a
small table three young men were engaged in a very
interesting game of cards.
ooh, Ephraim, get me a drink, will you - said
one Of them.
Ephraim mechanically arose, took a glass and
went out for water. He soon returned with it,
wished the boarder "to your health" and, desiring
to speak out his grief, began: do you know-my
son-Joe-died eight days ago-in the hospital?"
He turned his eyes to see what impression his
words had upon the man, but the other was absorbed
in the game and heard none of Ephraim's words.
He went back to his seat to rest, having carried the
machine to his room, but in whatever direction his
eyes wandered they were always arrested by the
machine in the corner.
my dear he said mournfully, looking at the
machine. you are my only friend now; your fate is
not enviable either, but it is a happier one than
mine, although you are chased from place to place,

The car was crowded when the two women entered
and several men were already standing up. However,
that did not. seem to worry the women. They were
well dressed and pretty, and a combination of that
sort will secure a seat almost any time. But on this
particular occasion every man in the car appeared to
be either tired or preoccupied. At any rate none of
them moved or betrayed the slightest inclination TO
do the polite thing
The two women stood by the door first, smiling in
that calm, confident way that women do when they
feel that things are bound to come their way. They
smiled upon every man IN their immediate vicinity IN
turn, but there was no appreciable effect. Not a man
moved-in fact, not a man even looked up to get
either of the smiles. One of the women moved down
to the center of the car. The smile was gone now,
and a cold, hard, naughty look had settled down on
her face.
Come down here she said to the other; 1.-THE
floor is a little softer
The little bald-headed man in the far corner was
seen to smile behind his paper, but that was the only
sign that the shot had hit anywhere.
after ALL, said the woman who had first spoken,
determined not to be baf1ed, lit is proper that men
should have the seats in a car
Her companion looked surprised. "Do you really
think 50 p she asked.
ooh, yes. Not all men, of course, but those who
usually get them, and hold them. 1t is really quite
fitting and proper. Why, you must have noticed that

She paused to see that she had the attention of the
people in the car, and to make her remark a little
more emphatic.
