TO RAISE A SMILE.
(Sent in by Tommy Flanagan, Walpaoa, Gisborne.) Pat and Joclc were in London for the first time. During a tour of the shops in the Weet End they came to an expensive-looking barber's. "Razors!" exclaimed Pat. "You want one, don't you?" "Aγ," said the Scot, peering through the glass. "There's a beauty there for twentyfive bob," eaid the Irishman, "and there's another for thirty bob. Which would you sooner have?" "A beard," said Jock, walking off. Dad: Do you know what's happened to my shaving brush? I've lost it. Frankie: No, dad, but Tommy's wooden horse has got a new tail. Teacher: If you do not do better work, Willie, I shall have to visit your father. Doctor's Son: Please, , sir, daddy charges half a guinea a visit. Tommy was sitting on the step looking very unhappy. "What's the matter?" asked a neighbour. "Well, I didn't care about mama giving myold trousers to the poor, answered Tommy, "but I had both pockets full of worms to go fishing jviih."
