Every one knew Clarke by sight ; aud ooe day, while quietly taking bis dinner, two travelers, seating themselves opposite, commenced a conversation intended for the ears of Clarke. One said : " Well, I have been in Xew York two months, and have seen all I wish to sec, with one ex ception." " Ah I" said the other, "what is that ?"

The traveler started ia mock surprise, gazed at him in silence a few moments, and then, amidst an audible titter of the company, drew from bis pocket a quarter dollar, and laid it before Clarke, still look ing at him without a smile. Clarke raised the quarter in silence and dignity, put it in his pocket and drew thence a shilling, which he deposited be fore the traveler with the words, " Children half price."
