HE jitney bus rofls on—empty, but unscathed. T Another attempt to banish it from the streets, on the ground that it displays advertising signs, failed. Judge Lynn of the Municipal Court could eee no violation of the ordinance. The corporation that owns the buses made the point that it does not advertise them for hire, but merely invites attention to the style of five-cent bus it seeks to operate, and requests the public to ask the Board of Fetimate why permission to let them run is not granted. Isn't it about time the question was adequately answered? Gom- fortable five-cent buses are not so plentiful in New York that the public is sated with them, Many up-town thoroughfares can safely aecommodate them, Why wait until the company that now charges ten cents to ride in its buses gets ready to widen the field of its monopoly ?

Jarr had requested him to ask an expressman to call for Misa Irene Cackloberry's trunk, All this explanation can be given because there is plenty of time, owing to the fact that Mra, Jarr paye uo heed to Mr. Jarr’a question. “Vhoy didn’t get into a real fight, aid they?" asked Mr, Jarr, “Certainly not,” said Mra. Jarr, “toe Cackloberry girls get along splendidly together, when you consider they are slaters.”” “And they come from Philadelphia,” remarked Mr, Jarr, “What has that got to do with it?” queried Mrs. Jarr. “Why,” replied Mr, Jarr, “Philadel- phia is the City of Brotherly Love, but Judging by the way the Oackleberry girls squabbie with each other, Phila- delphia isn't the olty of sisterly love,” “Oh, don't you worry!" said Mra.
