To have a lady, -whose company you are in, complain to the shop- owner of a clerk in a case where he is right and she is wrong. Tes. A trying dilemma, certainly. Now for the omni- buses once more. They cannot be exhausted yet. 43. To take the seat by an end window, and be regaled with a fresh breeze, tinctured with the boots of a stable friend of the driver's, seated on the top with his feet hanging over. 44. After rushing forward, on account of the great haste you are in, past one stage to cat...ch the one ahead of it, to see the last become first and the first last ; the other omnibus passing you, while your rascally driver waits for a load, answering all your remonstrances with as many ruses, to make you think he is going on : pulling up suddenly, as if called by a pas- senger in the distance, and standing as long as he dares for fear of your finding out that his passenger is a myth a creature of his imagination ; then, just as you are going to get out, he swings open the door to let the myth get in.
