As regards window notices, the least grandiose claim may sometimes bo the most effective, as in the case of the three tailors in one suburban road. The first boldly announced himself as “ the best tailor in England.” and was countered by the second with a claim to rank as “ the best tailor in tho world.” Failing information on the sartorial ha,bits of other planets, there did not reem much room for the third to improve on this, but he was equal to the occasion. His notice modestly declared that ho was only “ the best tailor in the street.”
A love 'letter from a Rhyl (Wales) girl to her Llangollen sweetheart was discovered in a rook’s nest by workmen cutting the upper branches of elm trees in a rookery in St. Colon's parish churchyard.
