SAYING IT WRONG.
SOME UNINTENDED". LAUGHS.
A labourer once palled on a country. parion to ask for a letter of recom mendation to a neighbouring noble- man, from whom he hoped to get smployment,
"Bab why don't you interview bis lordship yourself 1 asked..-. the parron.
Well, air, it's this way," was the startling answer: "I don't like speaking to Lord; he may be pread and not care to listen to the likes o' me." But I don't mind speak- ing to you, for there's nothing of the gentleman in you." **

"Gentlemen," wrote an applicant for a musical post, I noticed your advartivament for organist and masic teacher, either lady or gentle- man. Having been both for years I offer you my services."
The above answer was, no doubt, as innocent as that of the Scottish Laird'secretary, who wrote the following letter to a neighbour, who had arranged for a day's shooting with his master's-
