There was certain lawyer on the Cape a

then. and for ought l know. at present. He
was man we'll to do in the world and what
was somewhat surprising in the limb of the
law. averse to incnr litigation. One day a
client came in to him in a violent rage.
Look here, Squire" said he, +" that are
blasted shoemaker down to the Pigeon Cove
has gone and sued me for the money for pair
of boots owed him."
Ibid the boots suit you?'
"Oh. yes"
"Well, then. you owe him the money hon

"Well, why don't you pay him?"
"Why, cause the lasted snob went and sued

"How much do you want to 60 on witl,?'
"Oh, ten dollars will do
as that all? Well, here's an X, so go
ahead" and the client went on very we'll sat-
isfied with the beginning. Our lawyer next
called on the shoe raker and asked him what
be meant by instituting legal proceedings
against NJ
"Why," said he. Il kept on sending to him
for money until l got tired. l knew he was
able 10 pay, and was 'termincd to make him.
That's the long and short OF it.'
We'll" said the lawyer, .'he's always been
a good customer to you. think you acted too
hastily. There's trifie to pay on account of
your proceedings-but think you had better
take these five dollars and call it square,"
Certain squre-if you say So and glad to
get it," was the answer. So the lawyer forked
over the V and kept the other.
In a few days his client came along and asked
him how he got on with his case
