He Knew Too Much.

"Did you ever" remarked the man who
delights in facetious antiquities, "hear of
the hayseed who went to the ticket office
and asked what time the o'clock tram
left?'
Hal Ha! Ha ~ said his friends politely.
On the face OF one of the bystanders
there was, however, no answering smile.
Instead there was the strained look of one
who fails to see the point.
Well" he said, doubtfuIly, whats
wrong with that?''
''Why, man alive, can't you see? It's
the worst kind OF chump question. What
answer would you expect2"
"Oh, l don't know. Maybe 5:45.n
my friend, whom do you find willing to
pay money for the use of your mental
powers?"
tEh? Oh, you mean where do 1 work ?
I'm ticket agent on the Middle and
Southern.
