It Was Legitimate.

A traveler just from the South reports the following: On one of the Southern railroads there is a station called “Sawyer.” Lately a newly married couple boarded the train and ,were very loving, indeed. The brakeman noticed the gushing groom kiss t ,e bride about two hundred times, but maintained a serene quiet. Finally the station in question was reached, and just after the whistle sounded the groom gave the bride a rousing smack on the lips, and the brakeman opened the door and’ shouted: “Sawyer! Sawyer?” “What’s that?” responded the groom, looking over his shoulder at the brakeman. “Sawyer! Sawyer!” “Well, I don’t care if you did; she’s my wife!”—Merchant Traveler. \ Don’t try to please everybody.
