A TICKET THAT WoULn, . PASS. The
Now York correspondent Of the Boston Jour.
nal tells This amusing incident "A we'll
known doctor OF divinity was riding the other
day in Il street car in company with a friend.
He is a positive map aud reseuts an insult quite
vehemently. Erues,ly engaged in conversation,
he handed the conductor a ticket as he came
10 collect the fare. The conductor did not move
on. As he remained studying the ticket. the
doctors attention was attracted toward the
official, who seemed to be highly interested in
the car ticket, He read it; SMILED; shook his
head, and finally said to the doctor: This may
be all very Well but the ticket is no good on
this line What athe reason it's no good.
should like to know said the testy doctor,
It's Que OF your own tickets; | bought it this
morning L guess not, said the conductor.
The alteration drew the attention of all the
passengers. This is very good advice, but 1t
viii not pass you over this line and the con,
ductor read: Thou shalt not take the name Of
the Lord thy God in vain An explosion fol-
lowed-amid which the doctor paid his fare
and left the car. He has concluded to keep
his religious cards iu one pocket and his car
tickets 10 another.
