Maxine Love TO Garden Roller.

1t was a British income tax collector
who said that the defect Of his occu-
patton was that II gave you a low
opinion of the honesty Of mankind.
So. writes a correspondent, the pos
session of a new garden roller has
given an acquaintance Of mine cyni-
cal view OF humanity. AS l stood by
him In his garden noticed the num-
Der of persons who greeted him as
they passed. Lot Of friends you have
round here" said. Lot of people
want my roller" he replied. IT'S
enough TO make a man sick to hear
the way people come and compliment
me on my garden and then work round
TO a request for the loan Of my roller"
I suppressed a compliment regarding
his violas, adds the correspondent,
lest he should suspect that also was
on the roller hunt.
