"A friend; of mino, who happened to be dining at tho country house of an acquaintance in tho Surrey Hills t'ho other evening, found himself placed by the side of a pretty girl in a dainty white evening frock. Her face ,was oddly familiar to him, though her name struck no answering chord of memory," says the London correspondent of the ''Glasgow Herald." , "Surely we have met before," ; he observed at last. . '. "Yes, wo 'have," she replied, laughing merrily, "at tho station an hour ago,. whore I" had tho pleasure of collecting twopence excess ticket fare from you, and you didn't altogether like it." She ■ was the nieco of his host, it turned out, doing war duty at the local rajlway station.
