doubiy blessed youths on the opposite

had changed the heart action of any of
Its passengers. her glorious brown
eyes glanced serenely along the palpi-

she tore ticket from her strip and
placed 1t between her rosebud liz
while she replaced the strip In her
tiny purse. Lucky ticket!
The enraptured young man nearest
the door would have parted with a
five spot to possess that equivalent of
four and one-sixth cents. But here
comes the strangest part The con-
ductor also noticed this most delecta-
bic resting place of miady's car tick

not half bad looking. and the con.
ductor was also smitten. A tiny hand
reached up to the distracting mouth
and, removing the ticket. handed it to
the conductor 1t IS said that he
bushed. Certain it is that he took the
fare tendery between two fingers and
glanced at 1t pensiyely Then-and

moved from the storing place of all
