thon. ride—either a ticket or money. — haps you can succeed in finding it. will give you half an hour.
[he above conversation occurred on the train of which I was conductor, be- tween a middlexaged woman and my- self. She claimed to have lost her ticket. Perhapsshe had, but I doubt if she had ever purchased one. The game of the ‘lost ticket’ was often played on western roads, by women particularly, and often played success- fully. After having gone my usual round—collecting tickets from the pas- sengers—I went back and asked the woman if she had found hers.
‘No, sir, said she, emphasing ‘sir.’
I will have to collect $7.35 then, of you, madam. I am very sorry you have been so unfortunate (emphasizing the unfortunate) as to loose your ticket but the rules of the company must be enforeed, ‘pay or get off.’ .
‘Neither one nor the otber will I do, she answered defiantly.
| was about to pull the bell and put her off the train, when I remembered it was raining. It would be too bad to
put any one off in the rain, to wander|"~
around in the :narshes and perhaps get lost; for there was no habitation be- tween the two stations the nearest be- ing nine miles distant, and I concluded to take her on to Bridgewater, and then make her leave the car.
While debating upon what course to pursue, a smile of contempt and defi- ance lighted upon her face, and she said, ‘ Why don’t you pull the bell ?
‘ Because I don’t chose to,’ I answer- ed curtly.
Our conversation had attracted the atteition of the inmate passengers, and they regarded my action with interest, At ridgewater I ordered her to get off. She refused to do so,
‘J shall be compelled to use force, if you persist in thus setting at defiance the rules of the company,’ said I.
‘Lay your hands on me, if you dare,’ putting her hand into her pocket.
Here was a tartar. Did she havea nice little knife in her pocket that would cut short my existence? She was evidently a hard customer. The brakeman was poking the fire, and although he saw something was wrong, trouble with ‘ dead heads’ was of so fre- quent occurance that he thought no- thing of it. As he was passing by me [ stopped him, and said, ‘ Abe (his name was Abraham),‘ will you help me escort this lady to the door ?’
Without a moment’s hesitation he seized her by the arm and said, ‘ Come out of this old woman,’
Quicker than thought she jerked her arm aWay, and gave him a stinging blow in the face.
‘She must be the devil,’ said he.
“Til lay ye both out,’ she said, ‘if you bother me.’
1 began to think she might, tov.
‘ Let me manage her,’ said Abe.
‘What do you say the fare was ?’ she asked, suddenly, her voice dropping from that high pitch to which she had raised it.
‘To Klisbank ?’
‘ Yes,’
‘ Seven dollars and thirty-five cents.’
‘I haven’t anything less than a fifty dollar bill,’ said she, ‘can’t you change it??
‘Not just now, madam,’ I answered, ‘but will get it and hand to you.’
‘Let me see, I want $42.65 back,’ said she to herself.
It kuppened that 1 had taken «in all large bills—TL had no less than a fifty— and knew that IL could not make the change. IL was wandering what had so suddenly cooled the woman down. A momeit ago she was ready to fight,and actually had struck Abe. I passed out of the coach and was seated in the smoking car, when the brakeman came in. Sceing me, he said, ‘ What ails the old bear, that she tamed downso als mighty quick ?” °
‘J haven’t the least idea,’ I answered.
‘Something struck her all at ence, that’s what’s the matter with me,’ said Abe, thoughtfully.

CATARRE, Constitutional Catarrh Remedy CURES CATARRHEL.
Hear what a Reverend Gentleman says of the Constitutional Ren.edy.
T. J. B. Harvie, Esq., Brockville, Ont. :—
Dear Srr—It is now two years since your “Censtitutional Catarrh Remedy’ was intro- duced tome. I have waited this ong to see if the cure would remain permanent beiore do- ing this, my duty, to you, as at first the happy e ects seemed to me to be ‘‘too good to be true,”
I was afflicted in my head for years before I suspected it to be Catarrh. In reading in your Circular I saw my case described in many par ticulars. The inward “drop” from the head had become very disagreeable, and a choking sensation often preventing me from lying long, I would feel like smothering and be compelled to sit upin the bed. My health and spirits were seriously affected. When your agent came to Walkertown in August, 1876, I secured three bottles. Before I had used a quarter of the contents of one bottle I found decided re- lief, and when I had used two bottles and a third, I quit taking it, feeling quite cured of that ailment, and have not used any since until of late I have taken some for a cold in my head.
A sense of duty to sufferers from that loath- some disease, Catarrh, prompts me to send you this Certificate, unsolicited, with leave to make what use of it yon may see proper Yours truly,
W. TINDALL, Methodist Minister.
