- A lady customer was buying handkerchiefs in a shop and the assistant had brought out all sorts and kinds. Eventually he began to get tired of this so at last he said:- "Here, madam, very latest fashion. The edge is right round the border and the centre is in the middle."
"Oh thank you," said the lady customer effusively. "They are cute. I'll take a dozen please."
- A little boy came home from school one day and told his father that he had the highest place in class to-day.
His father said: "Good boy." "Yes," said the little boy, "teacher stood me on the dunce's stool." - Collector
