A RAILROAD TICKET. “A little schoolgirl'* definition of a milroad ticket Is worth repealing, to * c imposition written In one of the Boston primaries on "A Railway Journey." the little one says, among other things.— "Yon ham to get a ticket/ which is s piece of paper, and yet give It to a mao, who cut* a hole in It and leU you ya»»
