Please. Some Sugar on IL.

An Italian woman knocked on the door
OF a fashionable fiat on Lexington avenue
at about dusk, says the New York Com
mercial. She was accompanied by a curly
headed lad of years, with large round
eyes and tho face Of "a cberub. The cherub' s
face was somewhat dirty, however, and
his clothes were conspicuous from their
many hued patchings. When the door
was opened, the pair began a voluble ap-
peal In the language OF their native land.
The impression conveyed was that they
were strangers In New York, having ar
rived recently on vessel from Genoa.
Money was at once forthcoming for the
woman, and the kind hearted tenant of the
Hat brought out slice Of bread and but
ter for the boy. Up to this point the con-
yersation had been carried on in Italian
only, but the lad looked up suddenly and

Out OF this royal necessity grew the most

grounds that were to produce and fructify
the flowers for her drawing room. She
started to raise flowers for her own person.
