Painful Results of Stoutness

A stout man lifted himself into a

lady came aboard, and the stout man
quickly arose to tender her his place.
AS he reached standing position the
car suddenly started. and he sat down
with n sound like broken slat Blush
ing deeply. he once more struggled 60
his feet and was about to step out into
the aisle when the motorman saw a
wagon on the track and fercely ap-
piled the brakes. The car stopped so
suddenly that the stout man doubled
over on thin young man i'm the front
seat and almost cracked his slender
neck. The young man pushed the dents
out of his derby hat and muttered
some remarks that were not compli-
mentary to fat people In general.
Then the fat man braced himself for
the third time, and the lady sympathet-
ically remarked, please don't trouble
yourself" But the fat mans spirit
was up. He crowded out into the aisle
and filled il so full that the lady could
not get by him; then, with a polite
wave of his hand, he indicated the seat
and backed out Of the way.
"Thank you" said the lady very
sweetly. but / get off at the next
