A village clergyman, walking round his parish, met' an old parishioner. "Well, John," he said, "how is it I have not seen you at church for several Sundays ?" "Hain't got no Sunday trousers," answered John. ''Well," said the clergyman, Ml" think we can remedy that. I have a pair at home which will, just about, fit you, and I will have them sent to you to-day," "Thankfee, sir," said John. The trousers were duly.sent, and the following three Sundays John was seen at church. Then, after being absent for some time, the clergyman again met him. "Well John," he said, "you have no excuse for not coming to church lately . How is it I have not seen you there!" "Look here, parson," said John, 'fl like a man to speak plain. I. know what you mean; you're thinking about them trousers. I come to.church three Sundays,.'an', if you don ft think I earnedthem trousers, just tell me how many more Sundays I shall ha' to come afore they're mine altogether!" A man who is able to climb the most mountainous country in Taranaki mustering sheep; who sleeps like a top, eats three or four big meals a day, and is fresh as paint for. his work every morning, looks like a good type of man to send to the front. But a medical board tells him that he "hasa b,e&rt" and must stay at home. In spite of his strenuous mountain-climbing he never knew he had a heart before the Medical Board told him so. But before he went up for examination it was known that he would be turned down. How is it doaeS—Eltham '.!Algttf."
