shook her head in a solemn way. She
afterward explained her action by say.

"A woman may change her mind o

on his head after breakfast and starts
for the car with a "S'longw to Mrs.
Bowser, and on the way up to the cor

hot for the conductor On this occa.
sion, however, he hung around for
awhile and tickled Mrs. Bowser under
the chin and stopped to pet the cat.
Before he had reached the corner he
had made up his mind that street car
conductors were human beings and
should have words Of sympathy and
encouragement now and then. On the
way over TO the office q fat woman
stepped on his foot, and he raised his
hand and smiled at her. She was 30
taken with his action that she re.
turned and stepped ON the other. The
conductor gaZed into his beaming face
and then returned only Is cents out Of
a quarter, but there was no kick.
-Four times that day Mrs. Bowser
was called up on the telephone to find
Mr. Bowser at the other end. He
hadn't much TO say either time. He
Just asked after her health and added
that he never expected to see the day
when he should regret falling in love
with and marrying her. In his last
message he suggested that the cat be
treated with the greatest urbanity and
that the cooks wages be raised SO per
month. Mrs. Bowser was puzzlng over
this last when the cook came to heI.
with stlletto in her hand, and, pass
ing II over, said:
