we reprint the article, which bears, the al

We’re indebted to the Wolf Magazine of
IstfeTe, put out by the Wolf Envriope Co.
(Cleveland) for this story shout the presi
dent of a kmall railroad in Kentucky who
sent a pass to the president of one of the
largest U. S. trunk lines, with a req
that the favor be reciprocated. The big rail
road mogul had never heard of the Kentucky
road, so he had his secretary look it up.
Then he returned the pass, with this curt
note:
"Dear Sir: I find that your railroad
only 10 miles long, while my road is 1,100
miles long. I herewith return your pass made
out in favor of myself and fondly.”
This waa more than the crusty old Ken
tuokto colonel could swallow, so he scribbled
this note on the botton of the tatter and sent
it back: "While my railroad is not u long
as yours—It's just as wide.”
