IN THE EXPRESS OFFICE.
The Timid Young Man Did Not Like
the Style of the LOud-Vofced Clerk.

mt AouHe NAAh DAu Not Lilac
the Style of the LOud-Voiced Clerk.
From the Buffalo Express.
He was a timid, self-conscious young
man, and could not get over the idea that
everybody he met was looking for some
thing to laugh at in his conduct. 1t made
him blush TO carry his big package into
the express office. He was sure that every
body thought it highly ridiculous for
young man of his appearance to be seen
carrying package on the strees. He triad
to hide it under his overcoat and thereby
called attention to it all the more. He felt
trifle reassured after he got into the Of
hce, for there was crowd of people, and
every one had package similar to his
own. There was no danger of his being
laughed at there, if he could only do as the
rest did. But the busy, relentless clerk
spoiled it all. He would insist on speaking
10 this young man in loud tone of voice,
which could be heard by everybody in the
ROOM That was why the young man felt
disposition to abandon his package and
run when the clerk told him 1t was not ad-
dressed properly. Express companies might
hire clerks who would be considerate
enough not to shout out their customers
plumbers In that way, he thought He was
nalr minded to try another company, but
tne thought OF having to face the crowd on
tne street again with that package under
his arm restrained him. His troubles did
not end, however. when he had remarked

The busy clerk began writing the receipt.
What's the value?" he inquired. That
capped the climax. The young man shifted
from one loot to the other
thing in an inaudible tone.
What?' thundered the clerk.
Grown desperate at last the young man
leaned far over the counter, and putting
ms hands to his mouth whispered, with
tears in his eyes: ~
