Pastor—Well, my good man, how is your wife? Countryman (beginning to sob)—She —she—died last night. Pastor—My dear man, control yourself. Remember at this time the Inexhaustible consolations of Countryman—And she did not even tell me wnere she had hidden the money she has been saving ever since we were married.—New York World.
