Got an Under Berth,

General Cogswell of Massachusetts is
one of the heaviest members of the
house. He is also one of the shrewdest
statesmen in Washington, and he sell
dom has to take an upper berth in a
sleeping car. When once he discovered
that he had drawn an upper berth in a
Pullman, he wanted to know whether
the car was new and in good repair.
"The reason l want to know, The said
in a loud voice, sis because l had a
rough experience last night and night
before on II Of your cars. They put
me in an upper berth, and both times it
gave way in the middle of the night and
let me down on the II III underneath.
I've got an upper berth this trip, and l
don't care to have the thing happen
again. You see, I'm a little heavier than
the ordinary run, and it's no joke"
The other passengers began to prick
up their ears and look around. A half
dozen of them asked the fat gentleman
what the number of his berth might be,
and on his announcing it the timid &C.
cupant of the berth underneath proposed,
with a great show of courtesy, that it
would be a good thing to swap, and the
exchange was made with glee Oh both
sides. New York Press.
