One Woman at an Auction.

Women, bless 'em, are queer crea-
lures. This was demonstrated at an
auction sale in OMAHA not long age.
A beautiful silver toilet set was put
up and the auctioneer tol6 hand
some story about the value Of the ar
ticles. He was eloquent and persua-
sive, and woman, started the bid at
%. Another woman bid $3.50. The
first bidder looked daggers at the
second bidder and promptly bid So.
The bidders seesawed until the bids
reached so. Then the first bidder
shot an angry glance at her Compel
itor and bid Sl2. The auctioneer
smiled end called: aAn done?
Twelve dollars once, twice, three-e-e
times and-sold."
Then the triumphant bidder turned
pale. She walked back to the clerk
charged with wrapping the packages
and collecting the money, and unto
him she said:
@Good gracious! l haven't but
1927 to my name. can't take that
set, but / was just bound that that
horrid woman should not have it."
The clerk was evidently used to it,
for he smiled and put the toilet act
back upon the shelf without a word.
