One Cold Saved.

Logic is logic, whether it touches the affairs of nations or a cold in the head. The conviction, says London Tit-Bits, was forced upon a Liverpool woman whose coachman, although he had been ill for several days, appeared one morning with his hair closely cropped. “Why, Dennis,” said the mistress, “whatever possessed you to have your hair cut while you had such a bad cold?” "Well, mum,” replied the unabashed Dennis, “I do be takin’ notice this long while that whiniver I have me hair cut I take a bad cowld, so I thought to meself that now, while I had the cowld on to me, it would be the time of all others to go and get me hair cuttin’ done, for by that course I would save meself just one cowld. Do you see the power of me reasonin’, mum?”
