THE BUTCHER.
" I don't care so muoh about your weighing my meat before trimming it," remarked Mr Husbandman, as the butcher cut off four pounds of suet from his five-pound purobaso ; " but I do object to your partiality in charging me a shUling a pound for that fat, and afterwards demanding bub a penny a pound for it from the scavenger. If you would charge us each a penny or a shUling, I wouldn't say a word."
