;-sMlNINe VENGEANCE.
The Buxom Matron ssSiil Never Laugh
at Her Elders Again.

How certainly an angered woman can
avenge herself was illustrated on 4 Wood
ward avenue car. There were more pas
eeugers than seats or the story would
have been lost to the world.
Near the center sat little, wizened
woman, her face a network OF wrinkles,
her hair gray and her eyes protected by
old fashioned glasses. She was not less
than GO, but had the quick, nervous mo-
tons and the suappy manner Of speech
that betoken temper IL not vitality.
In front OF her, clinging TO a strap, was
a buxom matron on the right side Of 40.
The old lady few around getting her
purse and at the same time looking after
a couple OF packages and telling the con-
duetor where she wanted to get of, so
that the matron laughed, and there fol-
lowed a litter all over the car. The elder
IL woman apparently took no heed until
she was settled once more.
Then she suddenly sprang mp with:
"why, l beg your pardon! Sit right
down in my seat"
"No, thank you. Keep your seat. I'm
more able to stand than you"
Indeed you're not. | have made 1t
rule all my life to give way to persons
older than myself. DO sit down, there's
a dear"
The matron was foolish enough TO blurt
out that she was much the younger Of
the two.
"Tut, tut" came the quick answer.
"never be ashamed of your years. And
you look so frail too.'
As the younger woman will tip the
beam at 100 and is the picture of health
all on board were having a merry laugh.
1t was too much for the matron, who
rang the bell, turning black at an offer
from the old lady TO help her off and to
the curb.-Detroit Free Press.
