“Look here, Pete,” said a darkey to bis

When Scroggs broke one of his wife’s china 
teacups she bewailed the loss in doleful strains. 
She was so sorry she said; she had had that 
cup so man}’ years. A day or two later a new 
lamp-globe was broken. Then Mrs, b. was 
so sorry, because it was brand-new. If it 
wasn’t for that she wouldn’t have cared one 
bit.. Here’s logic for you! 
A great musical composer, when a youth, 
was clerk to a very rich, but exceedingly 
commonplace, in fact very stupid employer. 
One day. an acquaintance commiserated the 
clever lad on his position, saying, “What a 
pity it is that you are not the master and he 
your clerk." “Oh, my friend,” returned the 
youth, “do not say that. If he were my clerk 
what on earth could I do with him ? ’
