A Talking Sheep's Head.

John Leitch of Rothesay once when
on visit to Dunoon dropped into the
shop of Archie Mains and asked If be
had any good sleeps heads.
"Oh, yes" said Mains, "there's as
fine one as ye ever saw" pointing to a
black face lying Oh the floor.
care you sure that it is fresh?" said
Mr.. Leitch.
"Qnite sure, sir, replied the butcher.
cts perfectly fresh.'
Thereupon Mr.. Lcitch, who was an
admirable ventriloquist, brought from
the sleeps head the rather oonfounding
ejaculation ooh, what leel I'm
stiu n. "
"Oot O. my shop, ye leein Devil"
exclaimed the butcher. Didn't kill
ye wi my ain hauns this very mornin?"
And, suiting the action to the words,
he kicked the offending sheep head into
the street.
To carry on the joke, Mr.. Leitch, OBJ
serving fine OK tongue in the window,
made it apparently say, "Shame on ye,
Archie Mains" whereupon the amazed
butcher fed precipitately from the shop,
leaving it and all it contained at the
mercy Of his waggish tormentor. Mug

Sheridan :a.nd the Joke.


Sheridan, himself q brilliant orator
as well as a shrewd observer, was one
day asked how it was he got on 60 we'll
in the house Of commons. "Well," he
said, II soon found out that the major.
ity were fools, but all loved joke, and
determined to give them what they
liked" The great advantage of joke
is that it pats the speaker at once on
good terms with his audience. Hence
Cicero recommends it for an exordium.
A common way of winning the good
will of an audience is ilattery. When
the Jews brought down the orator Ter
tullus to accuse Paul, Tertullus began
his speech with fattery of King Agrip-
pa, "Since by thee we enjoy" and so
on. Another way, subtle FORM of fat
terry, is to describe yourself as native
of the same place or county as those
you are addressing. The forensic formu.
la, the fustian apostrophe to the IL "in-
telligent and patriotic and high minded
men" whom the rhetorical Buzfuz sees
before him, is played ont, but it has its
modern equivalents. Westminster Re-
