STORIES ABOUT PEOPLE.


Two Weep on One Handkerchief.
Two Of the prettiest nurses at the
West Philadelphia Homeopathic hos
pital are bosom friends. Dolly and
May Ito inject a little fiction In a
true story attended together a per-
Torrance of their favorites, the Or
pheum Stock company.
So far nothing unusual, but at the
rising of the first curtain it was dis
covered that the friends had but one
handkerchief between them. And,
alas, the play was sad.
One bit Of lace and muslin to stem
leak in the dykes. to stay the burst
ing floodgates! But let Dolly relate
the narrowing experience.
ooh, but the play was sad! We
never had such good cry in all our
lives-I mean such a bad cry, for
what can two poor girls do with only
one handkerchief?
First May began to sniffle, and in
about a minute the poor little hanky
was all wet. Then I started to fill
up and snatched the handkerchief
from May and dabbed my eyes with
1t.
Just then, at the saddest part of
the play where Ingersoll takes her in
his arms and-well, anyhow, I took
one corner of the damp thing and
May took the other and we blubbered
together.
Gracious! I wouldn't go through
such an unsatisfactory cry again for
the world" -Philadelphia Times.
