and often part with 1 common sense And self-respect In order to gratify their trained aristocratic tastes with a pittance the affair may seem more Uke a melodrama A certain stenographer who lives on the South Side tells the following incident relating to matters sartorial: she says a flounced silk skirt is the Mecca of all working desires" especially the girl who Is lately from the country "fell by cutting down- my to a Mills hotel basis and denying myself In sundry other ways I too reached the coveted goal Itfwas sent home from the dressmaker's and I called In my immediate friends In Order to have an admiration It was a beauty and I decided it well worth the sacrifices as I- laid carefully away until an occasion of sufficient magnitude should present itself for It to do service 6 o'clock the next afternoon Nell one of my girl friends' came into my room evidently much concerned about something say May I hate to ask you such a big favor but been Invited to a dinner party to-inlght and thing fit to knew what' was coming but I determined: I help to make her request easy so I remained silent MS I wouldn't ask such a thing ot-dlnarlly but you wouldn't' you dear let me borrow your' new silk skirt for 'But 1 never wore-lt I know but I'll takesueh good care of It and I'll do anything in the world for you' course' 'twas useless' to parley so I went to the closet and took out the skirt and gave It to her without looking at It not even having the heart to do It up for her you're such ii dear' good girl how can I ever hope to pay you was my reward' there were compensations A friend had my roommate and myself tickets for the theater' so 'I soon forgot my departed skirt In pre paring for the pleasure had' seats In the second row of the parquet circle and srere barely seated when who should come trailing down the aisle in rustling skirts but my friend: Nell accompanied by be -diamond young man of a decidedly sportive appearance "And so this was the dinner party and my skirt was to assist In making a favorable impression on this type of a man! But I had to admit that the owner of silks and satins galore have carried herself more regally than did my poor deluded girl friend "She even sefe me and after the play was over I saw them enter a place for luncheon where a chaperone Is quite essential even In the unconventional west was a slushy wet night and I am quite sure I could appreciate something of the despair when he cried: aMy ducats nex day the skirt was returned by a messenger boy and haven't seen Nell since a ciacumstance which Is lucky for us both I A THOUGHTFULNESS The Boston Journal tells the following characteristic story of our late president: the late president and party went west not- many months before he was shot Mrs McKinley It will be remembered went too While talking with Mr Scott one day the man whose firm built the Oregon Mrs McKinley said: do you play ertbbage Mr Yes was the great shipbuilders answer a so do said Mrs McKinley 'I wish 'you would play a game With should be dellghtedto do was the reply as President McKinley ail'd Mr Scott were looking over the big plant Mrs McKinley not being present the president said: by the way Mr Scott I hear you apd Mrs McKinley arranging -to play cribbage some timer said Mr Scott 'we are going to what- kind of a player are your asked the president -pretty fair I guess I play a pretty good so do said Mr McKinley do you know It may seem strange blits it Is a fact that I have never been able to play well' enough to beat Mrs As he said -this he looked at Mr Scott with a significant smile Their eyes met It was enough Mr Scott understood and It ishables as cream and milk Have you ever heard a porter agitating that subject with station employes at Buffalo or elsewhere?
