is exaggerated sympathy.
Then there was the pretty girl on the
train with her mother. Both Were
tastefully dressed. and refined in man
ner. But they grew earnest in cOnver-
sation, and it could be readily observed
that everybody within hearing dis
tance was making an effort to catch
the drift of their remarks. Now what
earthly interest could it have been to
be convinced that two unknown per-
sons We're pickering over their domes-
tic affairs? The mother was saying,
Forty dollars we've spent in this
days shopping, Forty dollars! Just
think of it! But you would have those
things"
But, mother!" exclaimed the girl,
with some show of spirit. that isn't
a whole lot of money, and we did get
so much Cor it,"
1T is a whole lot" returned the
mother in angry tones. you shouldn't
have wanted so much. don't know
what your father will say I'm sure.
1t amounts to just this In two or
three years, if you keep on at the rate
you're going, Wen both of us have to
go to work. Your father can't stand
1t. and he won't"
"Now, mother" the girl remon-
strated, 81 don't have as much as Jen-
ME A., and you know it, and we
can afford it If her folks can. I've got
TO have things TO wear, and what good
does II do to make such a time about
it?" and then she tried to turn the
subject. but the mother continued TO
revert to 1t, and the other pa ssengers
continued to listen anxiously for
further revelations of the pitlful little
tragedy in the lives Of utter strangers.
Yet, not one of the listeners would
have admitted TO the possession of un-
due curiosity.
Probably ii is this exaggerated
sympathy which leads people to listen
at telephones when other people are
talking; TO peep through keyholes and
read letters addressed to somebody
else, or to question little children about
the affairs of their parents. Thank
goodness that we are not all thus

THE COMING STREET FAIR.
Some of the Features of This Great
Enterprise.

The street fair to be given at Wyo-

auspices of the Elks. will be a novelty
in the amusement line, combining as it
does a many-slded entertainment.
There will be an industrial exposi-
tion, but IT would naturally not be
complete without an amusement Sec
tion. In addition to the display of the
latest and greatest triumph of the
manufacturing and commercial world,

wants to be amused, and in view of
this long-felt want, it remained for the
fertile brain of Frank G. BOstock, uni

from one city to another The result
of this energetic showmans arduous
labors, and. incidentally, the outlay of
nearly $l.OOO,OOO, is known as the

amusement feature of the coming street
fair. Those who were at the Worlds
Fair in Chicago, and remember the re-
nowned Midway Plaisance, can form
an idea of Director General Bostock's
big collection of shows. Each distinct
show is presented Just as 1t was In
