his clerk at one time. Lawyer B.. was
a gruff sort of parsonage and believed
in making every Cre pay for every
service. One of his clients was the
the president of a bank, who, during
the tendency of his case, dropped into
the lawyers Office very frequently and
TOLD stories. The lawyer was a good
listener and seemed to enjoy the sto-
ries very much, but after h banker
went out Lawyer B. would say: Here,
charge Mr.. Blank SO for an hour OF
my time. If | have got to listen to his
stories he has got to pay me for It,
Finally the bill was made out and car
ried to the banker. 1t was an tented
account stating the date of each call.
He scanned it closely and remarkSd:
HE has made me pay for 1t pretty
well, hasn't he?"
"Pay for WHAT" asked the clerk.
"For listening to my stories"
And he paid the bill.-Washington
