shey Wcro After HIM, but Angelina
Wasn't on tho Map.
Just ut this time there is IN intense rival
ry among railroads to secure travel over
their respective lines to Chicago and sum
mer resorts. A few days ago II thin, anti
quated specimen of the granger species ar
rived at Milan, Tenn, OH the train from
the south and began making inquiries
about rates. Tie was instantly surrounded
by the Illinois Central agent. and the fol-
lowing conversation ensued:
Going north or east, sir?"
YES, north" was the reply.
"Al! Step right M to tho ticket window
Great through line, sir Land you in Chi
cago six hours ahcal of all competitors
Finest sleeping and dining cars in the
world. Butter OH two plates Chicken and
good bread and moasses all over the table.
Come right in, SIR"
The innocent countryman walked along
Tor few steps, when the Louisville and
Nashville man greeted him afrcctionately:
Going north, sirs"
YES"
Step right in. Shortest line, free from
dust, put you there nine hours ahead of all
lines. Soup three times II day, goldfish balls
ut each meal. Conductors MI of pious and
respectable parentage. Come right along ="
The unfortunate haysceder was complete
ly dumfounded, and before he could re-
cover the two agents were hustling him in
to the Louisville and Nashville Office, when
another parley occurred.
What point are you going tor" was ask
ed by both agents simultaneously.
Coin to Angelina"
Instantly maps were produced, and for 10
minutes two pairs of eyes inspected them
closely. Then they looked ut each other
and both asked one question:
Where is Angelina!'
,"Where's Angelina? Why, s'pose she's
tNhum. Angelna's my wife and lives four
miles north of town"
The railroad maps disappeared, likewise
the agents, while the countryman boarded
one horse wagon for Angelina.-MIemph is
