A celebrated Hindu snake charmer had pitched his tent in a village in the Midlands. “Snakes, ladies and gentlemen,” he said to an admiring audience, “have been the study of *my life. Big snakes, little snakes, harmless snakes, and murderous snakes—l’ve lived l with them all. There’s nothing about snakes, my friends, that I don’t know.” “The,whole business?” asked one of the spectators. "Every little thing,” replied the charmer decidedly. “Then,” said the villager, "maybe as you’ll tell me where the body leaves off and the tail begins!” Why is ft gun like a Jury f—Because it goes off when it is discharged.
