Che Caught the Train.

The married woman who is always
in q hurry and is afraid that her hus-
band is going to be too late displayed
her characteristic proclivity the other
day in an amusing fashion. She was
going to New York with her husband
to attend wedding. When the two
reached the Broad street station, they
had three minutes to spare.
The husband leisurely took his time
in purchasing the tickets, and his
blase demeanor irritated the wife.
Hurry, hurry, George, or we shall
miss the train !" she cried, tugging at
his sleeve. PLENTY of time" an
swered paterfamilias, unconcerned.
The wife trundled up the steps.
She ran for the nearest car without
waiting to see whether it was con-
nected with the train and took seat.
The husband strolled into the next
car above, where he saw the green
flag suspended. He thought his wife
was there.
He hunted through that car and
those in front. AS he turned back
the train began to move out of the
station. He hastened to the back
platform only to see his dear wife
frantically waving her hands on the
platform of the car that was not
coupled with the train. The wedding
was missed, and the wife now has de-
cided that it is better to be with her
husband. d.-Philadelphia Press.

The Engagement Ring.

Some years ago it was decided in
an English court that an engage
ment ring is not recoverable in any
circumstances. Vermont has given
a different decision. a young man
sued to recover a ring that he had
given to a young woman, who, after
accepting it, repudiated the engage
ment. The judge decided that it
must be returned or else that the re-
cipient must fulfill the conditions on
which it was presented.
