May 1 sit with you while the
porter makes up my berth?" she in
quired languidly. 81 feel that l must
, retire early; I'm really so exhausted
with all this common crowd and
noise. 1t has been almost too much
for me. / have such sensitive
nature ] ought never to have come
tourist, but I was simply determined
to do so-for the experience. don't
you know?
I'm such a student of human
nature and | knew that the people
would be 50 different from anything
I'd ever been accustomed to, such an
entirely different class, don't you
know? My friends were really quite
shock ed when they heard of it. / have
the reputation of being SO exclusive.
1t isn't that I intend to be, but I'm
naturally fastidious and retiring and
anything common CRATES on me so.
Porter, is there going to be some
one in the berth over me tonight?
No, / cannot have it. You'll have to
see that he changes. I'm entirely too
sensitive. If l know that there's some
one in the berth over me l can't sleep
a wink. And the man that had the
berth last night was such common
creature. He snored--heard him dis
tinctly.
How can I help it If the car is fun?
I'm sure I'm not running the train.
If l were things would be quite diff
ferent You certainly will have to
Gao that there's nohOdy in the berth
over me-
MANY TROUBLES.
"Oh. yes, I meant to tell you that
you'll have to put the mattress out of
the upper berth into mine, I'm not
accustomed to sleeping on a hard
mattress, and / simply cannot rest on
one.
yes. 1 know you can do it. It's
often done, and ! snail certainly in
sist.
"If | pay for the whole section?
WELL I'm certainly not going to pay
for the whole section I'll speak to
the conductor.
Porter, you'll have to do something
to stop those children from running
UP and down the aisle. They make
such a noise, and when a persons
as nervous as l am-and you'll have
to speak to that woman with the
baby, too. If that child cries half the
night. as 1t did last night, / simply
cannot stand 1t.
my dear, did you ever see such
queer looking people? There Isn't
good looking man in the car. Haven't
YOU noticed? Well, / suppose I'm
more observant than most people, and
of course it makes difference when

Why, there's quite a nice looking
young man just coming into the car.
| hadn't noticed him before. He must
have got on at the last stop. I thought
saw rather nice looking man get
ting in with a dowdy looking woman
but l was talking to the conductor at
the time, so l did not really get a
good view of them. Oh, he's going
to sit down at the end of the car He
really isn't so very nice looking,
merely nice looking for a person
travelling tourist It's quite laugh
able, isn't 1t. how ones ideas change?
Now don't suppose l would have
noticed that man at all in the first
class car, but here he looks quite nice
Porter, you simply must see that
that man in the berth over me has
another berth. l cannot have h m
there and l simply will not have him
occupying the seat in the section dur
Ing the day See if you can get the
young man that just came In to
change with him.
There's no reason in the world
porter why you shouldn't ask that
man at the end of the car TO change
with the one in the berth over me
conductor myself
I've a mind to go and ask that
young man myself If he won't get the
man in the berth over me to change
with him. l don't believe 1t will do
bit of good to talk to this porter,
ana l simply will not tip him
WON'T

perth porter, while you go and see
ABOUT changing the berth
BIG LAUGH.
MY friends just screamed with
laughter when they saw me starting
out with all these packages. You
KNOW at home 1 won't carry the
smallest package. I'm so sensitive
about that kind of thing. But do
so dislike going into the dining car
alone that 1 brought enough lunch
to last me to the end of the trip.
And then | don't believe in encour-
aging the prices they charge in the
dining car. And then the tips, too
| think it is the duty of the public
not to encourage-
Did you ask him to change, per
ter? Well, | certainly shall speak
to the conductor. Or perhaps 1t would
be better for me to go and speak
to the young man myself
"Oh, my dear, is he your husband?
Then | suppose you wouldn't want
him to change. I'll just speak to
the conductor and see II he can't dc
something about changing the other
