A Georgia railroad and one of its pa
irons have got as far as the Suprem,
Court of that State with a lawsuit II
which the sum of money ut issue is Is
cents, but there is a principle involved
which both sides are determined shall
be settled for all time.
In Atlanta. as in most cities south
of New England. one cannot enter a
train without exhibiting a ticket and
having it punched at the gates. An
Atlanta man to aid a woman with a
good deal of hand baggage bought a
ticket 10 the nearest station beyond at
the price named. 1t was stamped ire
deemable if not used" The purchaser
before leaving the station presented il
for redemption. but this was refused.
He then went To the local court. which
decided In his favor The railroad
Ompany then appealed to higher
Nurt on the ground that in his pur-
'haSc of the ticket he simply pretended
o enter contract and his purpose was
O defraud.
Again the purchaser obtained a iud--
nent and the case is now before the
Court of Georgia. The prin-
iple of the plaintiff is that the rail
Dad had no right To question his mo
ives when he presented the ticket for
exemption and that of the railroad
is that the existence of the
ate system is at issue.

Table Must0rd.

Common, ordinary, everyday table
mustard obtained its name in a remark
ably curious way. 1t is said that Philip,
Duke Of Burgundy, granted to Dion
some armorial bearings on which was
the motto, "MOMt me tarde."
This was later carved in stone arch
way of the city, but as the years went
by the central word became effaced. A
certain firm in the city was engaged
in the manufacture of sinapi, which
was the former name for mustard. and,
wishing to label its products with the
city arms. copied the incomplete motto.
Thus, ignorant people seeing the
name "mOut-tdrdc" on the jars. fell
into the custom Of calling the contents
by that title. In time 'mOult-tarde"
was contracted to mOutdrde (mustard).
