That Was Enough.
"It was on a train going from New York to Washington," said Albert ■Barnes, of Toledo. "Among the passengers was a newly married couple, who made themselves known as such .to so great an extent that the occupants of the car began to make sarcastic remarks about them. “The bride and groom stood the remarks for some time, but finally the latter, who was a man of tremendous size, broke out in the following language at his tormentors: I “ ‘Yes, we re marneu—just married. We are going 100 miles further and are going to spoon all the way. If you don’t like it you can get out and walk. She’s my violet and I’m her sheltering I oak! ’’ "During the remainder of the journ- , ey thia couple was left in peace.”—BoeLon Advertiser
