stood up; and as I was saying de
 mugs what had put up de long green
 to fetch Percy here out of de tall tim l Der of Germany, dey was wondering what ell. Nobody couldn't see de use of Percy at five per. He might be a
 nice young man. and fell far and hard ] but why five per, and an all night ses- sion to see Percy? New York began to get funny over Percy, and de frost was gaddering on de box office, where Percy was to fall. Some one says charge only two-and-a-half q trow and see if de lovers of classic
 music won't step up to de captains office. But p'chee all de folks what loved classical music, dey didn't have de price of two bones and a half. and dey was getting ready to leave Percy fall into his grave. when a slick boy, who knew his way around de town as well as Duchess, he says, "Go to-" he says. You is playing de scale de wrong way. Play it up, not down, ." says dis Johnny-On-de-spo
 Flows dat?" says de packers, whose feet was most dreadful cold
 Don't drop from five to half of dat" he says. Double five. Make it tenner a seat to see Percy fall, and send for de police to help you keep New York from mobbing de ticket of flee, to get seats for de fall"
 Say, l needn't tell you what was do- ing. You seen it in de papers as we'll as me. A mont before Percy was due for a fall, you couldn't buy a ten dol lar pasteboard for twenty Oats got noting to do wit what l was telling
 you about, only, say! Wouldn't Duch-
 ess make a Chim Dandy of a boss for de opray de next time a gold brick is 1 to be flung at de dear public? What!
 Well, Mrs. Murphy said she could never go to confession again is she charged de price Duchess put down, so Duchess, to ease de old ladies souls. she done de charging herself. Every time she raised a charge she felt near CT heaven. De checks came in all right, and orders for more woik and
 de firm had to get an assistant.
 Dat was what I was going to tell you about. De gon dey took off de
 street was getting strong in de hospi-
 tai. for mOdder used to take her dinky goodies for to eat. and Mrs Murphy
 used to jelly her when she could visit
 de hospital; and de doctor says de goiI
 was stronger dan she ever was. and could go out Me mcdder seen dat
 nice little cadet man loafing around de
 hospital, and de goil must knowed he
 was dere. for she says she didn't want
 to go out no furder dan de edge of
 de East river, what is handy for dose
 like her dat hasn't any use for no od-
 der part cf de city. Oats what dey calls de Wharf route out of trouble"
 Oh yes, people who takes dat route
 has handy mind at a joke. now and den.
 Modder and Murphy sees what is
 boddering de poor gOil and dey says dat dey would take her past de young

man, so dat he couldn't harm her, and den she could go on her way.
 De only way l has is de wharf route," she says.
 Den de old ladies says what was de matter wit dem taking de goil home wit dem, and giving her a job at de fine laundry woik. Oats what dey done. De nice little man followed em. and locates where de gOil was; so modder writes me would l come down dere on me next day eff and give dat young man a little atten- tion.
 Sure" says l. and thank you kindly modder for de chance. I'll be dere''
 Say, we puts up a picnic of job, for fair. It was easy to see dat de young man was laying for a time when de old ladies would be far from deir own fireside. He'd felt deir open fists and was shy of an encore. We figures it out dat if dey was piped off by him leaving de place he'd make a hurry sneak up to de room, and try to scare de goil away wit him. So I goes in by de back way; de gOil goes into fren's room across de hall, and me modder and Murphy dey chases out witt deir baskets on deir arms, like dey was eff on a marketing trip.
 I was telling you de old ladies has two rooms now. l goes into de inside one. and waits for de nice young man. l hears him sneak in. and den he tries de door where l was, and he says for her, tinking she. de goil, was dere. to open it., CT he'd trun it down. and give her an extra beating to boot. Say, it was good one, all right. When he seen dat he'd been talking to me, and not to de gOil, dat nice young man tried to jump to de fire escape, but l nailed him.
 Never mind what 1 done to him. It's not much to brag about, to take proper care of cattle like dat nice young man, but all de care he needed, l give him

 When he had breat enough to say lanyting, he says, Please, now may go." he says.
 Dis is only de coitain raiser" l says. De hair raiser comes on when de women folks is hcme." When Murphy and modder comes. l dey brings all de American ladies on de block; de old families, you know, who'd lived dere, like me modder and Murphy, ever since dey comes from de old sod, and long before de Ginnies and Chinks comes into de district.
 Honest, I wish one of dose laddie- boys, what can take down what a mug says in wire screen marks, had been dere to take down de tings dose American ladies had to say to dat nice young man. I've heard some lang wudge of de kind dat MT Paul calls Picturesque" in me life, but de best ever heard before sounded like de small talk of school goils alongside Of what dose young ladies said to dat young man. You wouldn't tink dat just woids could coil up a man like dose langwudge coiled up him. Den Murphy takes q broom handle, an she winks to me, and I gives de young man a place across me knee-you know de kind of a place mudder used to make-and Murphy got busy. De copper on de block he comes in lCok- ing for murder, but when he sees what was doing, he looks like he'd found de room empty. and he goes out.
 Well, when Mrs. Murphys right arm was tired. l don't tink dere was an inch of whole skin on de part of dat young mans body shed. been aiming lat.
 Just den Duchess comes in, and she says we was having a party, and mod der she says it was a picnic, and Ouch esS goes over to a tub of water dat had done duty for washing, and she says Dis is my contribution to de picnic" she says, and she dumps bag of salt in de tub of water.
 Wit dat de party screams wit laugh ing, and I picks up de young man, and doubled him up. and sits him in de tub for to pickle him. When de salt and water had got well into de place dat was shy of skin. de copper comes back and mOdder makes a charge of house. breaking against de nice young man, and de copper runs him in.
 Dat night when I was fussng about de wood fire in de library l hears Whiskers say to MT. Paul, he says All dis talk about vice in New York is rot he says.
 Most talk is rot" saysMr. Paul, " But what talk has you in mind, now" he says.
 Dis talk about vice. and cadets. and red lights, and strong arm gangs" Whiskers says. Tn de lection cam paign We has just been trough talk of dat kind of talk was too common. It hoits de reputation of de city, and is all lies. Dere is no cadets nor red lights nor strong arm gangs. except in de talk of de wicked men who makes speeches for to scare campaign con- tributions out Of us"

 "Is dey too much?" asks de old lady, getting a. scare. "I charge for de tings I has to buy and use, and enough for a dollar a day for Mrs. Murphy and me; dough we could get along wit half a dollar"
 Duchess she didn't say noting. for she was getting busy wit de pencil and paper. Pretty soon she shows her figure woik to de old ladies, and dey near fell in a fit.
 Sure, Hortence," says me modder "dey'd send me to jail, if ever I made charges as dose!'
 Were not selling em fine linen, but laundrying it, says Mrs. Murphy, her eyes popping at de figures Duchess made.
 "Of a soitanty," says Duchess, you will not keep desc good customers if you do deir woik cheap. Charge em tree times what you was going to, and den you will have so many customers who will hear about de high prices, dat you'll need help to do de woik.'
 Docs de swells like to pay out mOney?" says me modder.
 No" says Duchess, "dey hates to but dey likes for to be known to have de tings dat costs mony, and dat is all dis firm needs to know"

AN AMBIGUOUS TERM.

What are corset models?' he asked
 She locked at him suspiciously.
 How does that interest yOu?" she demanded. If ever catch you hang ing around the corset department of a dry goods store there will be trouble. '"
 I'm merely curious, l assure you, he hastened to explain. 'I thought knew what a corset model was, but perhaps I'm mistaken"
 What did you think it was?"
 "I thought a corset model was like a dress model-a girl of such good fig ure that she can show an article off to advantage for the benefit of pros pective patrons"
 Well, you're right" she told him.
 Are they pretty?" he asked.
 Some of them are" she answered.
 "I wonder" he unused, thoughtfully counting the change in his pocket whether yCu have to take them just as they happen to come in a bargain sale CT can make a selection. We'll it's cheap enough, anyway
 What are you talking about?' she exclaimed.
 But I suppose there'd be a TOW ii I ordered one delivered here" he went on, and besides it seems a little un- civilized to tell''-
 What are you talking about" she repeated.
 For answer he pointed to a line in a department advertisement that read:
 CORSET MODELS (to clOse) $1.5O.
 And she Was SO provoked with him that she would not explain that the term had anCther-a very different meaning. But possibly he knew it. There was something in his chuckle that seemed to indicate the existence of joke at her Xpense-Chicago Post.
