1t wasn't scarce nor unique nor
valuable. 1t was worn altogether In

licious mince pies she used to make.
Behold now of an evening, hero and
heroine are hanging TO the straps In

happened for the first and only time

roof instead. OF course there were
other strap-hangers, thousands OF
them.
Mr.. Carney seldom noticed fellow
passenger. lie was too busy thinking
of collars, cuffs and neckties. He just
happened to notice Miss Parker be-
cause she had mole on her left
cheek.
She would have preferred to have
had 1t on her right cheek, but as her
Aunt Sarah said 1t was allowed to
remain where Nature had located 1t.
Miss Parker happened to notice Mr..
Carney because he had scar on his
chin. 1t was one he got while playing
shiny as boy, but as most every
body thought he got 1t while follow

had let II 60 at that.

the other just looked at the gar. They
might have bumped together,when the
cars swayed, but Subway passengers
bump and think nothing of 1t. It's
what they call unconscious humping.
BY the by the guard threw open the
doors and whispered the name OF a
station and announced that all passen-
gers who were dissatisfied could go
ashore. Among those who did so were
Miss Parker and Mr.. Carney.
