Toward the t3rmluation of a law -
snit in lllassaohusetts the lady in the
case arose and, with a blushing coun-
tenance, timidly addressed the court"
"Your honor," said she, "if I admitted
having made a mistake in my testimony
would it vitiate all I have said?" In-
stantly the lawyers on both sides became
perturbed and excited, while the judge
regarded her gravely. "Well, madam,"
said the court, after a pause, "that de-
pends entirely on the nature of your
error. What is it, please?" "Why,
yon see," answered the lady, More fineh-
ed and embarrassed, "when the clerk
asked me my age, I was so flustered,
you know, that I inadvertently gave
him my bust measurement,"
