n: dinner one Of our guests spoke Of
Evarts. and mentioned that that witty
lrrSonaSe had remarked. when a speaker
who was famous for boring his audiences

whether he would 60 to the funeral of a

Evarts: Il have given a great deal of
attention to Jersey cows. and can never
understand how it is that they give SC
much more milk with you than with us
Evarts made no reply. but presently re-
marked: Il wonder that You should fec!

less milk with you than they do in an
