CocKNEY TALK.

An Englishman who had grown tired
Of his tight little isle came to this cOUn-
try to teach school. One day while re-
hearsing a class of boys in spelling the
word saloon was given. The first
boy missed it. likewise the second and
the third. The fourth boy, spelling it
correctly, was asked to go to the black
board and write it so that all could see
how 1t was spelled Pointing to the
word, the teacher said:
This is the way you spell it. Easy,
isn't it? Just a hess, a hay, a hell. two
hoes and a hen"
In writing the word the boy had
placed the letters conspicuousIy far
apart. This popularity did not escape
the observing eye Of the master, and he
asked:
Why did you write 1t that way? Why
didn't you place the hay nearer the
heI?"
"Coz rs afraid It would burn up"
blurted out the irrepressible youngster.
as he dug his hands into his pockets.
The next word missed was Venice. -
1t was spelled with two ms.
What would you say If I told you
there was but one hen in Venice? %
asked the pedagOgue as he surveyed the
class critically above the rim Of his
glasses.
ct should say the price Of eggs would
be pretty high" came the answer from
the boy who, stood at the foot of the
class.

Some Of the West India islanders

Haiti, however, recently took occasion
to pay off old scores and to redeem his
self-respect in the case Of an offender

had answered that the prisoner was

Switzerland said the judge, and
