A CUTTING REPLY
While making her first visit to London the deal* old lady from the country farm was unfortunate enough to be knocked down by a swift-moving niotoi. A huge crowd gathered and bombarded her with questions and condolences. “Are you hurt, my dear?” kindly asked a gallant old gentleman, who was among the first rescuers, as he helped tho lady to her feet and brushed the dust from her clothes. “Well,” came the cautious reply of one evidently unwilling to commit herself, “it ain’t done nio no good.”
