HARD TIMES

The tanner had announced that’ in spite of bad times, he was going to pay his rent. even if it were his last shilling. The landlord came round to collect his money, and the farmer, putting his hand in his pocket, threw down a. roll of notes.

“T719111 Zion are," he said. bitterly "And that s my last shilling."

The landlord counted the money and then looked up in surprise,

"But there's fifty pounds too mu: here” he said.

"My idea of a ccrigciiiol couple is one who can mcct on a common ground and yet maintain their individualities, who speak the same lan- iuage but with a different accent, if you get ivhat I mean.

“The theory that a husband and wife following the same occupation would necessarily make them more congenial sounds like good matrimon- ial propiigniida," replied the mun, "but observation shows that ii. doesn't work out that way in real life.

THE CORONATION DAY

I have heard the view expressed that added solcmniiy would be given to the Coronation ceremony had it. been fixed for a Sunday (says an‘ Evening standard writer).

There are precedmts for a Coro- nation on every day o.‘ the week, ‘ but since the Conquest there have been more Coronation; on Sunday than on any other day.

Frcin William lRufus l0 Elizabeth there were fourteen. In that period there war. a rule which fixed Coro- nation Day as a Sunday c-r a wen‘:- diiy ivliich was a prlridpal Church feast day.

King Edward will be crowned onn Wednesdaw-May 12. Of the thirty- six kings crowned since the Con- quest only George 1. and George 11. had their Corohations on Wednes- days.
