A company of tourists were traveling in Switzerland, and they went to
buy tickets for the coach-ride up the mountain. The American man of

ticket when holders of second and third class tickets have precisely the
same accommodations?" The driver said, "You just wait a while and you
will see." So by and by they came to a steep hill, and the driver called
out, "First class passengers will keep their seats; second class
passengers will get out and walk; third class passengers will get out
and push."
