Now when that well dressed young man in the loby of our hotel in Londn told us that he hailed from Yugar, I was all attention, because I knew every inhabitant of that quaint little village, having visited every house therein and witnessed the queer way they have of lighting their homes at night. They used long splints. These they stick in the cervices of the

These facts were will established in our community. So I timidly, fer I wa.i alwajs timid, esperiliy in the presence of such apparent "iNpt.i tant p. rso.ia-e, asked his i.amc. lb reph.il 1 hat lu did not live in the il:; re of Vulvar, hat on a colony a little distance from Yuar and that his name was Michevice. He then told us what a splendid position he had and that he was making lots of money. He liked England and attended school here and was altogether about tiie happiest mortal living. He woudl like to do .something for us sojourners count r. men of his. So he called a waiter and proeurred us some delicious soft drinks, a thing none of us ever tasted he fore. We wer amazed at his liberality and profuse in our thankfulness. lie then talked about our nativity and was very interested in our relating the latest happenings. He then proposed to take us all on a surface car ride and .bov us the greatest city in the world. Xonvwo were all aching to see London, lut were afraid to venture out by ourselvc.-, ,o this was a (hd send to us. He said lie would -land all the e pense and he glad to do it for ih. We were gUing ready to accompany him. The empty neftar vriases still before tis when the hotel proprietor, a portly Kx-I!u.-sian stepped in the office and no sootier hcheld our benefactor when he got led in the face and exclaimed "Wind, you here again? I told you m v.m- to .-tep in lore, (lit o-..i instantly, or 111 put you h'U" yu belong." The yonug man began to murmur that he meant to do us a favor, etc. The landlord tailed Tor him. but the young man cleared in a hurry.

we started and came to a market

Mjiiare and. oh, what a place it was! There were hundreds of market stands: ?ome had jewelry, some clothing, others tinware, etc. You could boy everything from the cheapest second-hand -tuir to the most artistic roods in the world. One hat tand attracted my attention and as I paused before it, the woman conducting it began to converse in ltussian with me. She said she felt sorry for us poor immigrauhs. She said I ought to have a cap or hat like the Knglish wear. I told her that was line, hut that I must not covet it, as I had no money. Anvway they may war different styles in American. She said that mericn and Kngland dress exactly aiike. Finally, she took my cap and generously gave me an Knirlish hat for iL I thought 1 possessed a swell bead gear until 1 arrived at the hotel. I jio sooner entered the hotel, until evervhodv began to laugh, and to the land lord's piecry as to where did I get that hat, I related my supposed good bu k when he hurst out laughing, until I thought he would lose his sides. He then told nie that T was "taken in." that the hat I have is an old second-hand plug hat, decidedly comical on a little hv like me. anil he hunted up an old cap altogether too large for me, hut more becoming than the plug hat. This is thc-jvorst trade I ever made and came nearly leaving me bare headed. (To be continued.)
