EXCUSE REJECTED.
• Why didn’t you come when I called ?’ asked the angry papa. * I didn’t hear you,’ whimpered Willie. • That’s no excuse at all. Hereafter when you don’t hear me call I want yon to come and tell meso.*
Sin Ralph : ' Bacon, I saw you in a very drunken condition in the street the other evening.’ Servant: ’ Yes. Sir Ralph.* Sir Ralph: * Aren’t you afraid of something happening to you when in that state ?’ Servant: 1 Ob, no. Sir Ralph ; you see, I always take care to carry one of your cards with me.
