He did not seem disposed to take it, so she raised her eyes in haughty surprise. She then saw that it was not the conductor, but a mere fellow traveller who was thrashing her coin back upon her.

Euphemia spent last Sunday with friends who have bucolic tastes and live in the country all the year round. Euphemia, like many of her sisters, is wearing calf-skin boots this winter, and one of the most onerous duties of her brother is connected with blacking them. When she arrived in the city the morning after she had visited her country friends, there was a good deal of mud clinging to her shoes. She eyed them ruefully and looked at her wellcut, neat skirt above them. The contrast was too pain ful. She could not stand it. So she sought out the most secluded boat black’s chair in the neighborhood of her station and seated herself in it, determined to defy public opin i»n and show that even in such a position a woman may bo dignified. Curiously enough no one gave her more than a passing glance, and while the bootblack ostentatiously made ready his tools she fell into a reverie. She was aroused by hear ing the words, “Oil shine, Miss?” ‘‘No!’’said Euphemia, absent mindedly.“A rub down with Flori da water.” Tben she awoke to the fact that it was a bootblack and noj; a mas seuse to whom she was talking, and she gave him 15 cents extra for not laughing at her. “Myrtilla,” said the girl in the Persian lamb cape, after she had greeted a friend in a velvet coat at the hot chocolate counter. “I have a problem for you to solve.” ‘’AU right,” answered Myrtilla, cheerfully. “Well, if you were engaged to be married, and your afliancsd hus band’s Christmas present tc you was a year’s supply of lovley papers bearing your monogram-Hyrtilla stamped in ailvar, your affianced having had th* stamp made on purpose, would you tmuk, Myr tilla, that he was just mearely stu pid iu a man fashion, or would you think he meant to imply that you were .0 us« your maiden name a long time? ’ But Myrtilla's answer was lost in a sudden clatter of spoons.
