"that the animal had shore solders-I mean to say sore soldiers Il mean" Still there was some thing wrong. and the solicitor paused a moment to regain his oratorical bal ance, while the witness wondered du- biously whether it was conundrum or a trap. Steadying himself for a third attempt, and deliberating over every syllable the advocate asked whether the horse really had sore shoulders, and then expanded into a smile of triumph. When the familiar tongue-twister about Peter and his peppercorn becomes stale, suggests the Liverpool Post, here Is another one: Say sore shoulders dozen times rapidly without a mistake"
