ONE KISS, MARIA.-The following is con-
trib,ited BY tho ''Fnt Contributor" Of the
Cincinnati Times :. .flt is7,
There was funny little episode on the
car that helped to arouse us. AT Montana
q young man and a young woman came on
board of the sleeping car. and the former
said: "See here, Mr.. Conductor. 1 want
one of your best hunks for this young wo-
man and one for myself individually. One
will do for US when we git to the Bluffs
hey Maricr? IA playful and afrectionate
poke at "Marier" with his elbow to which
she replies, snow, John, quit!1 foryou see
we're goin' to git married at Marier's un-
cle's when we git there. We might a been
married at Montanny, but we took habit
to wait till sc got TO the BInn., bsin' is
Marier's uncle is minister, and they;
charge gor fired price for bitchin' folks
at Monlanny" Maria was assigned TO
one Of tho "bcst hunks" and John was
given one not far away. After time tho
inmates Of the car were all slowed away IN
their berths to go through the inevitable
alterations Of swelterirg aud freezing.
During the stoppagc Of the trnin at one.
station the voice Of John was heard, raised
i'm pleading accents, all unconscious that
the train had stopped, and that tones which
the noise Of the rafting wheels had drown
ed while the cars were moving could DO
distinctly heard by oil when they had stop
Ped
"Now Mari, you might give feIlcr jes'
one kiss"
John you quit, or I'll git light out hero
and hoof it back to Montanny in the snow
storm"
Only one little kiss, Maricr and Ill 60 +;
Ehopc to die T l don't"
| john"
Just at that interesting moment gray
head protruded from berth at The other
end of the car, and an old man cried out go
that all could hear "Marier, for God 8
sake give John ope kiss, 30 that we can
60 to sleep some time tonight"
1t is needless to remark that peal of
laughter rang from one end Of the car tn tho
other. under cover Of which John SUNK
back to the solitary seclasioh Of his .linnk. I"
leaving Maria to tiIe uhdisturbsd posses
sion OF her marriage license, which she ill.,
terprctcd to permit no license. to John
until accompanied by the proper certificate
