An aged country rector who had an old tailor as his clerk, returning from his church one Sunday with tho latter, thus addressed him: "Thomas, I cannot think how it is that our church should bo getting thinner, thin-ner, for I nm suro I preach as well as ever I did and ought to have far moro experience than I hod when I first enme among you." "Indeed," replied Thomas, "I'll tell you what. Old parsons nowadays are Jus: like old tailors, for I'm sure I sew as woll as ever I did in my life, and tho cloth Is ths same, but It's the cut. sir. Ah, It's the new cut!" Pearson's Weekly. |
