A young woman about to be married decided to left her sweetheart, and, with this object in view called on a girl friend. " I want you to go for a walk with Wallace,'’ she confided, “ and at a suitable moment ask him for a kiss.” Her friend blushed, ii.n consented. 3 he following day the bride-lo-bc called round to see what had happened. ", Did you ask Wallace to kiss you, dear?” she assed. "I didn't got a chance,” was the rather upsetting reply. "He asked me long before I thought of it.” A parson was summoned for driving his car beyond the speed limit. “Now.” said the magistrate, “ you say you were going at only eighteen miles an hour, but the constable declares you were proceeding at thirty. 1 don’t like to doubt either of you. Can yon think whv ho declares yon were going at that rate? Is there any grudge he owes you?" “No,” replied the clergyman. “1 can’t think of anything—unless it is that I married him throe years ago.”
