‘LIFE: Foc entered the car, to find every seat occupied and the aisle filled with standees. But'he was equal to the occasion. He shouted, with the voice of one having authority, " Plenty of seats in the next car.” Instantly there was a rush for the next car. The standing passengers started first, of course, but there were lots of the sitters who wanted to sit together and several more who thought by going into the other car they might get two or three seats to themselves. ‘The result was that Fogg selected one of the vacated seats and was deep in his newspaper by the time the crowd came pouring back, with an evident desire to shed Fogg’s blood. You see it was an oversight on Foge’s part. There were plenty of seats in the next car; he merely forgot to mention that they were all full.—Boston Transcript. STRANGER (driving past the foot of a mountain, to driver): Any- thing remarkable about this mountain ? Dkiver: There is nothing peculiar about the hill itself, but there's a queer story connected with it. STRANGER: What is that? Driver: A young lady and gentleman went out for a walk on this hill; they ascended higher and higher and—never came back : Dear me! What, then, became of the unhappy pair ? Driver: They went down on the other side.—Der Schwerzer- tsche Dorfhalender, Packer’s +. .

Merchant Traveler. AN Englishman who had been invited to dine with Prince Kau- nitz had the misfortune to upset a glass of wine on the table. *+Is that the custom in England?” inquired a German princeling.
