Il Wa. New 60 II. nishop.

At an unusually large dinner par
", where the guest Of honor was an
English bishop, the butler, an elder
" man, was obliged TO bring in
from a friends house an inexpe-
rieneed lad to help him in the din
ing room. The awkward helper an
noyed the butler beyond cndurancs
with questions as to his duties.
He continued interminably until
the butler, worn out and nervous,
said ironically:
"All you will need TO do is to
stand behind the bishops chair. and
whenever his lordship puts down
his glass you must reach over and
wipe his n.outh with a napkin"
That silenced his assistant. But
the young man actually took the or
der seriously. and as soon a. dinner
began he stationed himself behind
the bishop, waited till his lordship
had drunk and put down bis glass,
and then, as deliberately az his
would permit, be open
ed out large napkin and wiped the
dignifed old gentlemans mouth!
