At Waterloo Station, London, an American, arriving by the boat train, engaged a taxi to drive him to his hotel. ' Steamer trunks, hat boxes, despatch cases, overcoats, and walking sticks were piled on the taxi. The driver peered out through a crack in the mountain. "Is that all?'’ he asked. "Yes,” said the American, "that’s the lot.” "Well, well,” replied thedriver, "I suppose they wouldn’t let you bring the Statue of Liberty.”
