Heard While Waiting.

A passenger, while waiting at a rallwny station for bls train, amused himself by watching the queer looks and antics of a tailless cat as it played about ou the platform. The stationmaster happening to pop out of his office, the intending traveler pointed to the cat and said, "What kind of a cat is that— Manx?” “No," replied the-stationmas-ter. with a sly smile, "Brighton Express.” Lots of people are afraid of a cyclone who a're not afraid of the devil. , It Is not it sin to steal things at a grocery store where you “trade.”
