A kind-hearted vicar observed a woman slowly pushing a pram up a very steep hill. He volunteered assistance, which was gratefully accepted. When, after much exertion, he reached the top, he said to the woman, “No thanks at all. I’m delighted.

“ Sweet Eighteen ” and her mother were one night returning home in a tramcar after having spent the evening at the opera. They wero discussing the various operas, and the daughter happened to say as the mother was paying tho fares; “ Do you know, ma, I simply love ‘Carmen!’ ” The conductor smiled at the girl and said: “ It’s no use, miss, Im married. But you might try the driver; he’s single and at a loose end.”-
