Now and then Chicago drtryys a chappie in the great shuttle of life. The other tiny one arrived here from an inland > ! town who had a few points to spare in i his trunk. He took up his residen<-e in an aristo- ! ! cratic family hotel, where he appeared ■ religiously each night at a 7 o’clock I dinner in the evening dress of a second > class swell. This was all very commendable and cleanly, and not at all extraordinary where 80 per cent of the men did the same thing. But the good impression awakened by ffie chastity of the new<-onier’s appearance in the ineffable bosom and tie was > obscured by his attempt to order his dinner in as much French as he deem1 ed would be intelligible. The sonority of his final orders for a demitasse was good for all the surrounding tables, i if uot for the butler's pantry. , As the first week rolled on the young man grew more Frenchy, more mellow, more metropolitan in spirit, and on the “ occasion-rtf Ins- first, evening at honied * made his way to the smoking room, i when- he arranged himself languorously > and picturesquely in an easy chair.

Experience has m-:de the meit of\tT fruit stands overcautious in handling coin above the size-of a 10 cent pace. The larger pieces they will test upon the ! pavement or sijik their teeth into in a tentative fa-hion. It is to be noted, however, that whenever a customer makes a p< imy>purehase they pocket his change without scanning it—almost hastily indeed. There is deep reason in this procedure. For one thing, nobody counterfeits the cent piece; it is too cheap. For an other thing, the fruit dealer knows that no coin of smaller denominatio ns pass ing into his hands For a thii.. thing, and this is the most important, there is always a chance that the customer is deceived himself and is handing ovei a nickel, a dime or one of the minor gpld pieces, undel the impression that be is paying but a penny. If Tie looks satisfied ; and starts to go away, he ,is . not likely to be called back to get flu-change.
