    A Funny Story.
    Once two old ladies were talking in a tram and one of them said to the other that her husband was too forgetful for anything "When he goes out he really does not remember where he is going" said she.
    "Well," said the other lady, "all men are alike. They keep on talking and half the time they forget where they are going"
    "Stop at C. Street please" said the first lady to the conductor of the tram.
    She was very much alarmed when he replied. "That is two streets back, madam"
