Bill Brown, a miner, had spent a Saturday in Newcastle, and enjoyed' himself well; and, feeling flush, had bought a nice piece of cloth to have made into a suit of clothes. But, alas, on his homeward journey he lost it, which annoyed his wife very much. Full of grievance, she told tho vicar about it next day, blaming her husband for his great carelessness for the loss. A week later the vicar met Bill. “Good n|ornin,” ho said, “have you heard anything about your cloth?” “ Yis, sir,” answered Bill mournfully. “Aa hev—morning, noon, and neet.” Visitor: “Is this a good place for rheumatism?” Native; “Oh, yes, sir. I got mine here.” The difference between a fdra. producer and an astronomer is that when tho film producer discovers a new star he makes some money.
