recognition of 1t, is to receive severe
blow in ones bump of polteness.
Perhaps the final straw in most such
cases was the open sncer received some
| evening from some fresh young damsel,
who sank into the scat as If she had
been insulted instead of benefited.
"Then the long-suffering gentleman
solemnly held up his hand to high
Heaven-at least mentally-and sWorc
that never again would he give up his
scat to Woman--any woman!

every few of them, however, stuck
closely to their VOW, although the
, unanimous effect of these. oaths was
such as to utterly change the habits of
the street-car-riding public.
To-day one often sees a man get up
to allow an elderly woman to sit down,
or to give his seat to a crippled man.
'It takes more than q pretty face
and pair of silk stockings to lure a
male passenger from his seat these
days!
Nor do the women expect 1t any
longer. Seldom does one see girl
siding up to man end looking down
at him with that old look which used
to say as plain as words, Now If you
are any sort Of gentleman at all, you
will get up and let me sit down.
mo, every one who has got seat
sits, that Is all to it, and every one
who is forced to stand stands, that Is
all. Men smugly read their papers or
look out the window"

1t was the next morning that Gear
shift got on the bus with this con-
versation still fresh in his mind.
He began to think about the cour-
tesy Of old and determined then and
there for that one morning. at least, he
would be gallant again, 'just to see
how 1t feels" as he told himself.
Fate, however, seemed against him.
The bus was comfortably filled, with
vacant seat here and there, although
several men were standing in the aisle
| evidently from preference.
Gearshift sat next the aisle, an un-
| known gentleman to his left.
| At the next corner a young girl
| got on.
She was no beauty. there was nc
| question about that at all. Nothing
about her matched" as one might say;
| she was almost horely.
| For some reason or other she did
not see the several vacant seats, but
continued to stand. gripping the handle
| on the end of seat two places up.
| A few blocks farther down the street
| Gearshitts gentleman rose TO get out.
| To accommodate him 1t was necessary
for Gearshift to arise and stand in the
aisle.
AS he stood there. slightly to the rear
| Of the seat the old instinct of gallant
ry struck him with full force.
He ostentatiously drew back and
| looked down at the vacant seat. He
| would not give up his own place. he
| thought to himself, as this would be in
defiance of modern-day public cour-
tesy, but he would magnanimously al
low the young lady the seat by the
| window.
He even looked at her squarely. sig
nificantly, in a way which said plainly
| Take this seat here by the window"
The girl looked away-and continued
to stand.
"Well"--and Gearshift sat down
cured forever.
