A man who has new horse and !
wagon took a girl for drive the 9TH
! er day. Starting out she praised the
horse enthusiastically and said she had
never ridden in such luxuriously
easy "top-buggy." Then she turned
the conversation to other topics. Later
on the man said, Aren't You really
II crazy about my horse?' Yes" she
replied. II said 1 was and 1 am. But
don't intend to brag about it all the
afternoon. When am invited to go
motoring I expect to pay for my ride
/ by Dragging about the machine all the
/ time 1 am out but for an ordinary
/ buggy ride I rave for three blocks and
then quit. If that isn't enough you
may stop and let me out"
