The man In the seat across the aisle seemed lo be pretty comfortable owing to the attention he'd been paying to his big sliver flask since the departure of the train from New York, nnd when he saw the smooth faced, genial looking man with the fur trimmed overcoat he handed the flask over to him, saying: "Have a pull at that, chum. It's chilly in here." "Thanks," said the mail with the fur trimmed overcoat, smiling amiably, "but I've Just hail luncheon." After awhile a flashy looking rliap enme in from one of the day conches and took a seat alongside the man with the fur trimmed overcoat. He sized up the man with the fur trimmed overcoat out of the tail of his eye, lit a cigar and inquired of his seat mate: "Well, how are they running for you' Picking the winners?" "I don't believe I quite catch your meaning," said the man willi the fur collar and cuffs good naturedly. His questioner grinned. "Ah, come off," ho said banterlngly. "X mean are you nailing the babes that are getting over the plate flrst?" "Still," said the man with the fur trimmed overcoat, "I think I fail to apprehend you."

"Oh, now I think I understand you," said the man with the fur trimmed overcoat, beaming. "The running horses, I take it, you allude to? Well. I am not 'playing them,' as you put It. at all." "I'assed the game up, eh?" said his seat mate. "Well, 1 can't say that I have, really, seeing that I never did engage In the practice of wagering money on horse races," said the man with the fur trim med overcoat quite amiably. "It's a practice of which I scarcely approve." His seat mate pulled out a flask and offered it to the smooth faced genial looking man. "Hit this up. It's the right goods," ae said cordially. "I think not," said the man with the fur trimmed overcoat quite beamingly. "Aside from the fact that I've just eat en, I don't use spirits in any form."

My own overcoat was stolen from me in n hotel in Fhilndelpliia yesterday and one of my Philadelphia friends who is somewhat addicted to things of this world loaned me the overcoat you now see me wearing until I can have an other one made.
