"FIT FINE NOO."
A gentleman in the North -was very anxious to gain ;v seat in the House . of Commons, and ibegan courting a constituency more than a year ago. His wife, an English lady, visiifced tha country folk, to aid his cause, and came to a farmer who was starting a brick factory, and immediately she became greatly^ interested in bricks. A week ago she was' . again in the same parish, and met, as she' thought the same man, and stopped to speak to .him. ■ "Arid how do your bricks get on?" she asked, eager to show her sympathy. A* : it happened the man was wearing a new* v pair of trousers^ and imagined she referred' to them. " It's rale kin* p' yo it© ask, muni;," Ihe >•■" said. " They were a trifle ticht at first,' : but they fit fine noo."
