Two sons of Erin shovelling sand on a hot day stopped to rest, and exchanged views on the labour question. “Pat, this is moighty aid' work we are at.” “It is indade, Jemmy; but what koind of work is it you’d like, if you could get it.” “Well,” said the other, leaning reflectively on his shovel, and wiping the perspiration from his brow with the back of his hand, “for a noice, aisy, clane business, I think I would be a b shop,” It is discouraging, to say the least, to a young man who has been tenderly nursing a few straggling hairs on his upper lip for three months, to have his girl say : “Oh, Charley, why don’t you let your moustache grow ?” The following deserves to be true, even if it isn’t: —The coal man came up with a load, and wanted to “shoot” it. The householder hadn’t ordered any coal, and told the carman so. The carman was certain he was right—his firm never made mistakes—and insisted on delivering two tons. Warnings by the householder were of no avail, and the coals were duly dumped down into the cellar through the hole in the pavement. Presently the coal man returned and confessed his error—his load was meant for somebody else. Would the gentleman pay for it, or could he have it back ? “Have it back,” said the householder ; whereupon the carman wanted to cntei the house with sacks and shovels. But that wasn’t in the contract and the man of the house objected saying that he had carpets and thing that musn't be spoiled. “ How am I to get ’em out, then ?” said the carman. “ The same way you put them in,” was the retort. And now there is war between the parties. In the drought-stricken areas in North Queensland horses and cattle, as well as sndep, are doing well on sugar cane, the supply of which will, however, last only until Christmas.
