Separating Them.

Mr.. Grub, an elderly bachelor, hav-
ing been troubled for a week or two
with pain in his back, went to his
doctor. The physician prescribed two
large porous plasters and told him to
call again In about fortnight and re-
port
Mr. Grubb complied with directions.
He went to drug store and bought
the plasters and after a prolonged
struggle with them in his own room
succeeded in getting them properly In
place Being very small man. how
ever. the two nearly covered his whole
back At the end of two weeks he
called at the physicians Office again.
We'll. how is your back~ asked the
medical man. A.,
Sound as a dollar; hasn't panied
me any fer ten days or more"
Glad to hear it. You may take the
plasters off whenever you please"
Not much" exclaimed Mr.. Grub,
removing his coat and vest, taking of
his collar and locking the door Of the
doctors office. II won't touch 'em.

The Bishop Won,

"There was an English bishop, the
bishop of Oxford, who could reel OF
wonderful rhymes" said a London
clergyman. ''The bishop once wrote
a rhyme about cassowary:
II would were a cassowary
On the plains Of Timbuktu!
! would eat a missionary
Cassock, bands and hymn book too!
"a dispute once arose about the 'au-
thorship of that rhyme. The bishop
Of Oxford claimed it, and a punster
on Punch also claimed it, According
~, as test, the word Jehoshaphat
was submitted to the two claimants
fer rhyming. The man who best
rhymed that difficult If not impossible
word would be judged the true author
of the cassowary effort.
''Well, the Punch punster failed-fell
down completely-but the bishop Of
Oxford easily proved his rightful own
ership Of the cassowary production by
dashing of on the spur Of the mo-
ment this magnificent effort:
''The valiant King Sennacherib
OF any man could crack a rib.
But could not of Jehosaphat,
And that because he was so fat"
