A railway guard busily engaged in getting his train ready to start, accidentally trod on a lady’s dress as she swept by. "Oh, you clumsy man!” she exclaimed, the sudden weight from behind bringing her to a standstill. “Please be a little more careful.” “Beg pardon, madam,” replied the guard; "but I can’t possibly attend to two trains at once.” —Tit-Bits.
