absolute rudeness. 1t is related that
one day a very voluble lady took her
daughter, who was i'll, to see him.

''NIy daughter" replied the elder wo-

Abernethy then put question to the

her mother began long story. Aber-

"Put your tongue out" he said to the

"But there's nothing the matter with

A Queer comnIieation.

In Sydney, town of $4,000 inhab-
itants. one can get nothing to eat on
a Sunday. Certain restaurants supply
food surreptitiously, but the whole
time the guests are in danger Of being
arrested. Once an Italian was in such
a restaurant on Sunday when suddenly
the police entered. The Italian was
promptly pushed by the proprietor into
a room where a waitress happened to
be standing in negligee. Even this
room the police invaded, but the wait
ress saved the situation by declaring
that the young man was her fance.
The young man, by the way, had been
married some time. He thought that
he had deceived the policeman; but, as
a matter Of fact, he had got out of the
frying pan into the fire. One fine day
the waitress called him before the
courts and claimed $500 for breach Of
promise The italian had to pay. And
then came the worst of all. His wife
sued for a divorce and shortly after
married another man.
