The Ugliest Man.
Exchange.

4 commercial traveller while tourney ing in Europe got into a railway carnage in which he found gentleman sitting. The TWO exchanged glances as is the man. ner of fellow-travelers. From looks they proceeded to words. and in the course O; time there was veHi animated conyersa- iion. As they neared the destined s,a- tion. the 's9uire-for so he might be prop erly termed-said 10 the commercial ,rav- eler:
 ~Where do you happen 10 be putting up a, this placer
 At the Golden Cross" was the reply.

We have got on very we'll together. Jus, get into my dog carl il IS sure to be wait ing al the station. will drive you over with me we will put you up for the night, and will bring you in al any time you ike tomorrow morning.
 The commercial traveller thought he was in for good thing. and very readily consented. Past pleasant lodge and q shady avenue the dog cart rolled up to a por,ico where there was charming young wife waiting with child in each hand for her husband. There was capital dinner and delightful bed chamber. and our traveller thought with justice that he was very fortunate. The following day the squire drove his guest back again into ,oen as far as the railway station. The two paced the platform for some little time waiting for the train.
 '' am sure am very much obliged To you for you! unexpected hospitality.
