TWO IRISHMEN GO FISHING.
Two sons of Erin had spent the afternoon fishing from a hired boat. When they landed with a fine catch. Pat remarked: "Begorra, that was a good spot where we causht all them. We'll go there again to-morrow. Do you remember where it was?" "I do that," answered Mike, "for I put a chalk mark on the side of the boat." "Well, if ye're not the idiot!" exclaimed Pat, "we might not get the same boat to-morrow." A delightful story is told of an old Evangelical bishop who, much irritated by the habit of his High Church clergy to head their letters with the name of the saint on whose feast they were writing, replied to their "Eve of S. Remigius" and what not, with letters beginning "The Palace, Washing Day."
