The man who will not show his railroad

He was well known upon it, for his appear

of conduct was not Of much consequence.
On one occasion a ticket collector, unac-

quiry. The old gentleman did not even
vouchsafe an answer, but stared stolidly
before him. II must see your ticket, sir. -
No answer. This monologue went on for

During the reign Of George II there were

service-surely recognized Indication Of
religious activity. At one Of these there
were three daily services; at all of them
the whole lO9-there were services every
wednesday and Friday and on all holy
days and saints days. There were endow-
ments for occasional sermons in nearly
every church. So much of the Puritan
spirit remained that the sermon was still
considered the most important part of
church service. In other words. sound
doctrine being held 20 be essential to saliva

Two Heads. but Only One Fare.

The famous two headed boy has curious
experiences outside the museum as well az
in it.
When he was travelling from Philadel-
phia TO Chicago with his father and man
ager the conductor, seeing two heads and
receiving but one ticket, asked for an
other. The father, who does not speak
English well, said:
'No-oner'
The conductor insisted, and finally
threatened TO put one of the boys off unless
he received another fare.
ihereupon the manager, who was in the
next seat enjoying the joke, stepped back
and unbuttoned the little fellows coat, re
marking; "All right, put him off. Which
one shall it be2"
The conductor passed on Boston Herald.
