No Change.
Some days ago a man accustomed
to travel) ' and, one who understands
how to g,et out of a tight place, took
the train at Detroit for Rochester.
His pohket book \ VhS, %pretty fiat—
nothing in it to defray expenses for
some days to come, bane, ten dollar
bill. , He must keep moving, or else
he would find himself ba-nkrupt in
a strange•city. Standing in the de-
pot and. looking at the train which
was about leaving, his eye fell on the
placard, " This car for Bnchester
without change." An idea which
never occurred to him before, al-
though he had seen the same pla-
card a thousand times, came into his
head. He stepped on boa.rcl the
car, took a seat and bustained
