The pro- prietor glanced at {t and rudely ordered the man out, The old man seemed about to cry as he turned toward the door. A young man sitting near called to the proprietor and had the old man brought to his table, and then to the @mazement of all about, he pushed over to the old fellow the plates of food which had just been brougit to him. ‘The old man murmured thanks and the young man got up, paid the check and left the restaurant without having tasted @ bite of food.—A.

PUBLICLY WEIGHS IN SECRET. This morning a wom anof Imposing proportions stepped on @ penny scales on Chambers Street. Instantly the at- tention of all passers-by centred on her and the dial on the scales, but she had no intention of appeasing their curios- ity, even if she did Increase their mer- timent. She slapped her newspaper over the face of the scales as the indicator spun up and around, peeped under it and, apparently satisfied with her inge- nuity, stepped’ bff and away.—diss Rac Silvers, No. 216 E. 115th Street. NOW, WHAT DID HE DO WITH ITT I saw the driver of a truck on which were londed many crates of chickens pull a chicken from a coop as hig truck was being: ferried acrosa the North River to-day.
