A drummer on this train this hap
pened years ago said pleasantly to
the conductor:
"We're going to be late, friend."
"No," said the conductor in surly
tones; "no, we ain't going to be late,
neither."
"But," said the drummer, "I
thought we were going to tie up here
for the night!"
"So we are," the conducor sneered.

names of the tailors along the road
until he came to the establishment
for which he was evidently seeking.

Hon. Clarence. "So I thought, or I
should nod have called to tell you
that in future I intend to get my
ah clothes here, too!"

able even to tell the time of day. A
friend of Uncle Ben's gave him a
watch, of which he was very proud.
One day, before the crowd at the cor
ner store, Old Pete, being Blightly
jealous of such wealth and wishing
to embarrass bis rival, said: "Say,
Ben, what time have ye got?"
The other old fellow drew out his
watch and turned its face toward his
inquisitor. "There she be!" he ex
claimed. Fete was almost at a loss, but he
made a magnificent effort and retort
ed: "Blame if she ain't!" Every
