Absentminded Husband Tags the

Probably the most absent-minded man
in Kansas City was on an East Ninth
street car last night, says the Star. With
his wife he sat on the south side of the
coach. Opposite was a young woman.
The car was about half ful. At MCGEE
street the wife suggested to her husband
that he see whether there were any va
cant seats on the grip car. He opened
the forward door, stepped out on the
platform, was gone only a few seconds
and returned. Instead Of sitting next
to his wife he calmly sat down beside
the young woman opposite her.
There's not a vacant seat out there,
he said.
The young woman looked distressed and
made no answer. The wife was evident
ly nervous.
There isn't vacant seat out there, p
