The man who travels on the railroad, and
sits down 10y the side of lone females while
lahoring under the impression that he rec
ognizes a likeness in their faces to his wife's
aunt's cousin, met his match ON one of the
roads in this vicinity lately. He sat down
in the half Of seat, the other half Of which
was occupied by pleasant faced young lady.
His first question was:
Pardon me, miss, but is your name
James? have cousin Of that name whom
you greatly resemble"
No, sir, was the reply, my name is not
James. But. pardon me, is your name Zinc
or Copper?'
Zinc or Copper? No ma am" said the
astonished man. what led YOU to sup
pose had such names?'
Excuse me-" was the quiet reply, "but
thought certain YOU must be first cousin to
a brass foundry"
The man fell over two seats and kicked
bird cage half way down the car in his haste
to get into the smoker, while the young lady
smiled gentle smile behind her handker-
chief. 1t was proof of the old ada:e, that
a witty answer turneth away bores.
Gentleman meets friend and takes
him home to dinner. Arrived at the house
he leaves him in the sitting room, to an

hearing directly clanor of tongues in the
adjoining room, aecorates the key-hole with
his ear Shrill voice-"Always the way,
bringing people home without minutes
warning. Him, too! Why couldn't you
leave him to batten on his usual free lunch
route ?" Hoarse voice-"Ssh!" Shrill
voice-"I won't SSH" Hoarse voice-"I tell
you you will. Oh if he wasn't in the room
outside, wouldn't just give you p" The
friend, shouting through the -hole-"I
amt any longer; give it to her." Exit,
slamming the door.l

teeth had made on his right arm, and
kissing them with the old gallant en-
pressment.
