Robinson, boarded the car in charge Of

to be let off at Lake View. The con-

went in and sat down. The car pro-
ceeded on its way up Main street and
the first stop was at Smith street. The
conductor called out Smith" and
gentleman arose and left the car. The
next stop announced was Taylor when
another gentleman arose and got off.
The car went on until the conductor
pulled the bell and called out Mary" at
which young lady alighted and when

blocks further on. another lady left the

WOMAN's EXCHANGE.

A smile OF anticipation lighted up his
countenance as he turned aside and
entered the building.
A middle-aged, sharp-featured lady
in eyeglasses came forward and bowed
to him as he stepped up to the coun-
ter, and after slowly looking her over
he said:
Excuse me, madam, but air you tine
only one they've got on hand at pres
ent?"
''The only one on hand! What do
you mean?'' was the puzzled reply.
'The only woman, of course l hain't

I noticed that this was woman's ex-
change. an I thought I'd drop, in an
look over what you had on hand, an
