Lord Odo Russell’s Reminder.

Lord Odo Russell, while calling on Prince Bismarck during the sitting of the Berlin Conference, asked him how he managed to rid himself of that class of importunate visitors whom he could not well refuse to see, but whose room he found preferable to their company. . “Oh!” replied the Chancellor, “I have a very simple method; my wife knows them pretty well, rnd when she sees they are with me she generally contrives to in and call me away upon some pretext or another.
