A PRECISIAN. 



A New York physician who has re- 

 cently transferred his activities to the 

 Hub, tells of a Bostonian who, like most 

 of his townsmen, is a precisian in the 

 matter of English, and who had occa- 

 sion not long age to consult the afore- 

 said doctor. 



After ascertainment of symptoms, the 

 physician said : 



"What you need, more than anything 

 else, is a tonic in the shape of fresh 

 air." 



Whereupon the Hubbite waxed sar- 

 castic, and inquired : 



"Before we proceed further, would 

 you mind telling me what is the shape 

 of fresh air?" 



HER REASON. 



Curate — I am glad to see you come so 

 regularly to our evening services, Mrs. 

 Brown. 



"Yus. Yer see, me 'usband 'ates me 

 goin' hout of a heavening, so I does it to 

 spite 'im."
