When Farmer Fairweight came to London on a flying visit he discovered manyj things—that ’buses < fluid go without horses, that you could walk for a wholel hour without striking a field or an acquaintance, and, finally, that you couldn’t hit a policeman simply because he com-* pels you to move out of other peopled way. As he was being taken to the station he inquired what the policeman intended doing with him. “You’ll find out soon enough,” said the policeman grimly. “Seven days, probably.” '"Seven days!) Ah, that’s where I have ye, old bluebottle!” chuckled the farmer triumphantly, producing the return half of hi# tickets. “I’ve to go back on Monday!”
