A ■ good story of the _ Navy comes from London. It was in a first-class carriage on tho underground railway, in which wore seated a fat and pompous individual, a midshipman in uniform, and a quiet, elderly gentleman who was reading “The Times.” The fat and pompous one who was also reading suddenly looked up and, glaring at tho little “middy,” said, “I would like to know what the Navy is doing to justify its existence. What is it doing?” Before tho “middy” conld reply the old gentleman in tho corner said very quietly: “I can answer that question for you, sir. The Navy is enabling you to keep that fat paunch of your’s taut, that’s what it’s doing.” "“I did l not ask to bo insulted,” said the fat man. “Neither did I.” replied the quiet and inoffensive-looking gentleman, then added, “and I will not al low anyone to slander the service to which this young gentleman and I have tho honour to belong. Permit mo to offer you my card.” The fat man saw that he had been addressing Lord Fisher, late F'xst Sea Lord, and he forthwith collapsed liko a punctured tyre. For Bronchitis or Asthma inhale.
