A Surprised Organ Grinder.

A pretty music teacher was return

of flowers, the gifts of her pupils, when
to speak to each other.
While they were thus engaged an old
italian, whose companion was grind
ing melancholy tunes out of wornout
hurdy gurdy, approached and stood be-
side them, shaking his hat in dumb
show of begging.
The teacher had no purse with her
and therefore paid no attention to the
man. But so persistent was he that
she thoughtlessly and impulsively turn
ed and said:
81 have no money! Here, take these
flowers!'
The Italian, unused to such q favor,

n moment in startled surprise; but,
quickly recovering himself, he bowed
low, so that his hat almost touched the
ground, and, with Il smile in which hui
NOR and gratefulness struggled for SUI
premacy, he repeated again and again,
while he continued to bow and scrape:
"Nica lada! Gooda lada! Mica lada."
The chagrin of the teacher may be
imagined as she hastily left the group
of laughing bystanders, but the Italian
was unabashed and continued to call
after her
