All He Was Fit For.

The American says that in an Irish court recently ap old man was called into the witness-boy, and being old and a little blind, he went too far in more senses than one, and instead of going up the stairs that led to the box, mounted those that led to the bench. The judge took the mistake goodhumoredly. “Is it a judge yon want to be, my good man?” he asked. z “Ah, sure, your honor,” was the reply. “I’m an ould man now, and mebbe It’s alt I’m tft for.”
