MADE THEM ALL LAUGH.
Book Must Have Been Funny, but No
 One Knew What Is Was.

It must have been very funny story! The type looked funny from across the aisle of the car, the pic lures looked funny, and the young lady who was reading it doubled up in fits of stifled laughter every few minutes. The young man in the seat with her could not help stealing a glance at the pages of the book which was evidently so funny, but whose cover was carefully doubled back out of sight, and soon he began to laugh as he unblushingly followed the story page after page, shaking with sup pressed merriment.
 The woman in the seat at right an gles became interested and looked over the girls shoulder. Presently her face broadened into a grin and soon she was convulsively shaking. The man in the seat across smiled at the scene A boy a few seats down the aisle grinned sympathetically. A darky still further down showed all his white teeth. The contagion spread until the car was nearly on the verge of mysteries, when the fair reader got up to leave the train, yet no one but the girl herself had any idea as to what the book was.
