RAILROAp GHASSWARE.

Everyone has occasion once in a
while to take drink Of water on a
railroad train. and no doubt the curt

been remarked. Ordinary glasses have
nat or concave bottoms. but those now
in use on railroad trains have bottoms
which are convex to such degree that
they cannot be placed on a table with

while the women are just as confident
that Is is an abandoned baby
