And She Didn't.
A lady passenger in a small coasting steamer had been aunoying the man at the wheel by asking questions. At last he so far forgot himself as to tell her to "go to Jericto." The lady was greatly shocked and insulted, complained to the captain, and insisted on au ajjo'ogy from th-s man. The captain politely promised to see to it. Having called the man, he told him that ho must apologise, and so he went off rather sulkily towards the cabin. Having reached the door, he stood there till the attention of the lady was directed to him, when he called out to her, " You need uob go" ; then turned and went on deck.
