morning. Two ladies one old and the
other young, were waiting for an early
morning train when in came one of the
swellest of the swells, dainty as flower.
In minute he spled the young lady and
going over to a window he arranged his
attack upon her. He then commenced
walking to and fro in front of the place
where she was sitting in the hope Of get
ting at least a smile, and that is what he
got when his back was turned.
1t was not the kind, however, he had
anticipated, but was made at him with a
knowing wink to the other lady. He
continued his mashing until the ladies'
train came, but was not rewarded.
