Unobservant Man.

“The majority of people are not very observant in small matters,” said a certain philosophical ticket agent the other day. “ El®w many of your own friends do. you think you could accurately describe if you should attempt it ? Not many, I will warrant you. Why, there was a man here the other day to purchase a ticket for his partner. When he came to fill out his description, he could not remember whether his partner wore side whiskers or a beard. He was brilliant, however, compared with another man who was here the other day. He actually did not know the color of his wife’s eyes, and had to telephone up to his house before he could get her ticket filled out.”
