 A well dressed woman. of at least the average intelligence. signalled the motorman to stop. and after carefully adjusting herself in vacant seat. ad- dressed the gatherer of fares when he made his appearance in manner as fol- lows:

 The collector of nickles, whatever might have heen his opinion of this bit of reasoning, said nothing to hurt the feelings of his fair interlocutor. but merely smiled deprecatingly and. held out his hand for the customary coin. which the young woman managed to Ssh out. after considerable effort, from the mass of things with which her pocketbook wa scrammed to the clasp. and the ring of the register was the only thing that disturbed the dense silence that reigned.

The head of the family, who worshiped at the shrine of the golden calf; his wife, whose god was blue blooded aristocracy, and Edna, the only daughter of the house.

She was clever enough not to aspire to shine as a social star-which would i'm evitably have resulted in failure-but in order to receive the share of homage due to one in her station in life" she preferred instead to pose as a large souled self-sacrificing woman. Dear Edna" was born to command, frivolity," Mrs. Porter would say. with a fond outward smile but inward groan for her daughters impoesfbilities.

 The fact that the situation might hc very easily remedied by giving Pun kett a triae more for his services never dawned upon them
 Mrs. Porter summoned the man De- fore her.

 Marriage by advertisement seems to be much in favor in Vienna. A diligent inquirer has counted no less than 5SS matrimonial advertisements in the two leading middle-class papers of that city in the course of a week. It is only the middle class who arrange their matri- monial affairs in this way. and 1t Is curious to notice that the number of women who advertise Is almost equal led by the number of men. The com piled of this list makes some sad re- fections upon the levty and venality of the age. Young men and young women. he says, are no longer ashamed to regard themselves as objects of merchandise which may be put up to the highest bidder.
