A beggar accosted a gentleman anc whined: “I’m paralyzd in "both m‘ands, mister, an can’t work, fer I can’ grasp anythirk with ’em. Cotld y: spare me a trifle, mister?’’ “‘I’m deaf,’ replied the gentleman ‘*You'd better write down what yor have tosay. Here’s a pencil and a piece of paper.’’ ‘‘Deaf, is ’e?’’ thought the beggar “Then 'e didn’t ’eur about the paralysink,’ % he wrote down: “I've got a wife an six children starvin at home, mister. I've been out o’ wurk fer six munths an ham in s Greffel state of destertushun.’”’ He handed the paper to the gentle man, who read it and said: “I thought you said you were paralyzed in both hands and couldn't grasp anything, and yet you can write.’’ ‘‘Did—didn't ye say ye was deaf?” stammered the beggar, who now really did feel paralyzed. ‘“Yes, just to find ovt if you were an impostor, which you ure, as I suxpected,’’ replied the genileman. “*Well, of all the bluom:in frauds, yor the biggest!’’ exclaimed the beggar. ‘The hidea of yer sayin ye was deaf an tryin to impose on a pore feller. ”’ And he shoffied off, snifiing the air with righteous ixdignation.—London Tit-Bits. The Ultimate Winner. ‘‘Have you fixed my will so that it cannot possibly be broken—so that there is abseclutely no chance for any dispxtes over its provisions when I am gone?"’ ‘“‘Yes,’’ replied tho en:inent lawyer. ‘‘Every possible precaution has been taken to make sure thet your bequests will go to those to whom yon have devised them. ”’ “You have not forgotten to name yourself as my executor, as I directed?’’ ‘‘T have done so, sir.” “‘And you are certain that every ‘i’ is properly dotted and every ‘t’ crossed as it should be?’’ “Yes, sir. There is not a single loophole of any kind or character in the document. Every possible contingency has been provided for. I will stake my legal reputation on that, Mr. Feebles.”’ ‘*Well, now, tell me, Hooks—not professionally, but asa man and lifelong friend—whom do you honestly think stands the best show of getting the property ?’’ ‘Well, if you pat it that way—er— h’m—I do.’’—New York Journal. Begging and Religion. Before a London police justice a professional beggur told an interesting story of his methods. He admitted haunting the neighborhoods where religious meetings were held, and he appealed tc women coming from these meetings with the quotations: ‘‘The Lord loveth a cheerful giver.’’ ‘‘Those who give to the poor lend to the Lord.’’ ‘‘The bird: of the air have nests, the foxes have holes, but, like the Son of Man, I have nowhere to lay my head.’’ The prisoner said that he found this méthod very effective, especially in the winta months, when women wore thick glover and could not tell the difference be tween a penny and a half crown. Tipping the Curate. The ever recurrent question of tipping has taken on a new phase, and a curate has been writing to the papers to complain that he is the only person wh: gets nothing out of a wedding. Clerk, verger, pew opener, policeman and al! the rest are ‘‘remembered,’’ and the wedding foe goes to the incumbent, who sits at home at ease. It is a little difficult te decide what is the smallest sum that would not offend a curate. At any rate, those about to marry might make a note of it, and if it is a £5 note all the better for the curate.—London World. Your kitchen shouid We! be withoat aC.
