The bridegroom and his bride were
starting on their honeymoon. Just as
they had taken their seats In the train
one of the bridegroOm's chums came
hastily along to bid him goodby.
AS the young husband extended his
hand the friend snapped handcuff
on his wrist. The groom had been
expecting a trick of some kind, and
before the practical joker could play
a similar trick on the bride he found
the other handcuff snapped around
his own wrist He was chained to
the happy bridegroom himself!
That's a good one against me, Har-
nv" he said, with a sickly smile, but
I shall have to ask you to come to the
door with me and get the key for
these things. A man on the platform

Just then the whistle sounded, and
the train started off, and 1t made no
stop for the next fifty miles. Before
that, however, the porter, with the aid
of a file. succeeded in separating the
