STRANGE INDEED.
o The other day an ingenuouslooking person cabled with the message to the housewife that her husband had sent him for his dress suit, which was to be pressed and redone by the tailor. “Dear me,” said the housewife, “he said nothing to me about it. Did he look quite well ? ” “ Yes, mum, he wuz in good hea Ith and spirits.” ‘ ‘ And he seemed quite as if he knew what he was about ? ’ “ He did that, mum ” “ And did he look as if he were quite content with things about him ? ” “ He was all that, mum.” “Well,” said the lady, “it seems strange that he should only think of that dress suit now, because it’s ten years since he’s been dead and buried, and I’ve often wondered how he’s been getting on.”
