A Boomeranq.

A very rich, very economical and
very parsimonious young squire was
making preparations for a tenants
ball some years ago and at his wine
merchants discovered cheap brand Of
champagne. "This," he said, sis a
good brand of champagne. 1t is quite
good enough for those people who will
come to my tenants ball. They
couldn't tell the difference, anyway"
Accordingly he ordered a dozen cases
of the cheap wine. 4 day or two be-
fore the event, picking up his news
paper, he noticed that his wine mer-
chant had a half page advertisement.
He ran his eye over it and saw in big
black letters the paragraph, '"Try our
celebrated champagne at SO shillings a
dozen, as ordered by Gobsa Gold, Esq,
for his forthcoming tenants ball."-
