"May I see?"
"Yes, but don't let him find you out. It won't do in society to let it be known that you were ever a stable-boy."
"All right."
Tony leaned over, and addressing the gentleman, said:
"Would you be kind enough to lend me your programme a minute, sir?"
"Certainly," was the reply. Then, looking at Tony: "Your face looks very familiar. Where have I seen you before?"
"Perhaps at the St. Nicholas, sir," said Tony; "I am stopping there."
"No; I never go to the St. Nicholas. Bless me! You're the very image of a boy I have seen somewhere."
"Am I?" said Tony. "I hope he was good-looking?"
