At a meeting of some American Congregational ministers, one gentleman, who stated that he had been eastward with his " superintendent," was interrupted by a brother clergyman, who asked if he meant his wife.
" I say," said a Bohemian to a friend whom he had just run against in the street " lend me a sovereign. I'm awfully hard up." " My- dear fellow," returned the other, drawing one from his pocket, " this is my very last." '•* Well said the first speaker,' seizing the coin greedily, " I"m all the more grateful for it.''
