A week of such devotion and Wing summed up his cash on hand-——eiglt, nine, ten dollars and 40 cents. He dressed himself in Sunday clothes, rolled his pigtail into a tight knot and set out for the department store, where she was enslaved. “How muchee you want your Meli- ’can gal?’ he asked the flcorwalker, most politely. Strange to say it took some minutes to convince the ad- dressed that an insult was not im- plied. Questions followed at length. Did Wing wish the figure alone, or in costume, as exhibited. To be sure he wished her clothes and all, Alas, when the price was named, including dress, bat and girl, in toto, Wing's counte- nance fell. He shook his head and de- parted with the visage of a stoic. Behind the ironing board came more calculations and Wing began to work overtime. The new year had been ushered in before Wing again appeared in the role of suitor. The savings of six months were with him. A new inven- tory was made, the pr had increased with the season. Wing deliberated. He was “veliy solly,” but the “Melican gal” would have to do without her lux- urious cape. The money being paid, the new master undaunted by jeers of the pop- ulace and occasional apple cores, shouldered his blonde beauty and bore her home. Once within the laundry precinets, Wing placed the beauty on a wash tub {and arranged her gown in [folds. It took Liim a full hal® hour be- |fore he was s fied with the result.
