ONLY IN MERRY OLDE ENGLAND


A young woman who was several months pregnant boarded a bus. When she
noticed a young man smiling at her, she began feeling humiliated on
account of her condition.  She changed her seat and he seemed more
amused.

She moved again and then on her fourth move he burst out laughing. She 
had him arrested.

When the case came before the court, the young man was asked why he
acted in such a manner.  His reply was:  "When the young lady boarded
the bus I couldn't help noticing she was pregnant.  She sat under an
advertisement which read "Coming Soon:  The Gold Dust Twins", then
she moved under one that read "Sloans Liniments Remove Swelling".  I
was even more amused when she sat under a shaving advertisement which
read "William Stick Did the Trick".  Then I could not control myself
any longer when on the fourth move she sat under an advertisement
which read "Dunlop Rubber Would Have Prevented This Accident"."

He won the case.
