you must ask mamma"
So little Wimpleton did.

ahem!-er-what would you say to me
as a son-in-law?"

probably shouldn't say anything at
all, but If you didn't-well, my dear

There is a certain natural pride felt,

have such a name? 1t was not borrow

the globe nor even suggested by any
novel or romance.

ness. Take O'Grady's case. You know,
In ireland, some so or 70 years ago,
when a poor family lacked a coffin
they made the corpse beg for 1t.
This custom, alas! sometimes led
to imposture. Thus, Thirsty O'Grady
and his friends wanted money badly
once, and O'Grady was assigned to
act the corpse. So they laid him on
a bier outside the door and they put
a pewter plate beside him for the
pennies.
LAS O'Grady lay there, so still, with
closed eyes, an old woman stopped
and dropped ~sixpence into the plate.
Then, she began to take out change.
A penny, tuppence, threepence she
took out, and O'Grady couldn't stand
such meanness. Corpse as he was, he
said:
"'Arrah, now, don't mind the
