THE late Rev. Dr. Sutton, Vicar of Sheffield, once said to the late Mr.
Peach, a veterionary surgeon, "Mr. Peach, how is it you have not called
upon me for your account?"
"Oh," said Mr. Peach, "I never ask a gentleman for money."
"Indeed!" said the Vicar, "then how do you get on if he don't pay?"
"Why," replied Mr. Peach, "after a certain time I conclude that he is
not a gentleman, and then I ask him."
