Where Whistling Is Punished.

There is one place in the world where a man can’t whistle. A correspondent writes from Stuttgart, Germany: “Queer place this. A young fellow of my acquaintance was walking in the town the other day, having in his hand a cane with a whistle in the handle. His companions dared him to blow the whistle. Not liking to he dared, he blew a blast. He was immediately arrested and fined 15 marks.”
