ed out one ankle coquettishly. She
wanted to know if he liked her new
hat, if he thought that her gloves
were not little too large-she had
such a small hand it was so hard for
her to be fitted.
Suddenly there was an imperious
ring; they had forgotten to pay the
fare. He hurriedly produced his peck

but found none With a swift move
ment she placed a ten cent piece in
