"They say Behrman, the manager, ¢gme to her for a play only seven months after he refused her a chance I met her Winter before last, when I was down in New York; she was just commencing then." "I've not been down to New York since our wedding trip," Geraldine said. "1 don't think she was there then?' "Oh, my, no!" he said, 'eagerly, "Why, she only came to the city a couple of years ago--it"s extraordin- ary, her success. She's only a girl now--twenty-five or six." "Steady, Louis!" Geraldine said, with a significant glance from his face to his mother, "Oh, nothing like that, I assure you!" the man answered again, put- ting his arm about his mother's lit- tle shoulders, as he sat beside her on the couch, "This is my best girl right here--I don't need any other!

She laughed cheerfully, as her two hear- ers laughed. "But you urge him to discuss this thing, Louis," she fin- ished seriously, "for if he will do it for any one in the world, he will for you!

(To Be Continued.) | KMD ON THE SDE | | The Whig heara about the mean- esty man in town on Monday. He is the driver of an automobile, and it is stated that a few days ago, when a little boy 'was hurt in an accident and rendered unconscious, he refus- ed to take the little sufferer in his car to hodpital, a very shortdistance, when appealed to. The father had the youngster: if his arms, and was trying. to get the boy to the hospital as quickly as possible, but it is al- leged that the man drove on and the father had to carry his son to the hospital. There is certainly truth in the old saying that it takes all kinds of people to make Ww the world, It's funny what you hear from time to time.. A few days ago, a Kingston man was in the town of Goderich, While there he heard a man make a remark to a friend "I'm going to take a motor trip to King- ston on my holidays." "Don't go to Kingston", remarked the friend, "for if you do you, will have to sleep in a chair." This is another good boost for the hotel accommodation in this city, - Now that the barbers are on' strike, there is surely some truth in the old nursery rhyme which goes like this: - Tiddly wink the Barber He went to shave his father, The razor sl "And cut him in the lip Tiddly Wink the Baiber. Since the barbers went on strike, a good many razors, which have been on the shelf for some time, have been taken down and honed, but to the man who has been getting his ton- sorial work done down town, shaving 'has not been a very easy task, and quite a number have made a slip and cut their Hp, Wrecking Auxiliary Wrecked.
