FUN OF MINISTER'S DAUGHTER.

The daughter of a certain minister
created CONSERVATION the other day by
walking into a book shop and saying
meekly:
"Do you give clergyman's discount on
playing cards?" --E,. .--

"On playing cards"
"Clergyman's discount, did you say?"

- because I'm a clergyman's daughter
said the young woman, "and / always get
a discount"
ooh, very WE'LL" said the salesman,
trying to keep a sober face.
The young woman bought the cards,
paid the price, minus the clergyman's
discount, and went out of the store. The
joke was considered the best of the
season among the book salesman. But
the girl tells it rather alphabetically,
and says she has done better. She has
a fodness, it seems, for having fun with
herself. The other day she had some with
out any previous intention. She went
into another book shop, this time for some
pens. A stupid, half-grown boy trundled
himself forward to wait on her.
I'd like some pens" she said briskly.

"Pigpens!" dashed the girl, and, whirl-

She says she didn't mean to do it, but
the temptation was too strong, and she
has been chuckling ever since at the ex-
preston which came over the boys face.
