A man in an automobile, who was stopped by a policeman for speeding, became very angry and called the traffic cop an ass. After he had paid his fine, the judge reproved him, for what he had said to the officer. "Then I mustn`t call a policeman an ass?" he said. "Certainly not," said the judge. "You must not insult the police." "But you wouldn`t mind if I called an ass a policeman, would you?" "Why, no, if it gives you satisfaction," answered his honor with a slight smile. The motorist turned to the man who had arrested him, and said: "Good-day, policeman." |
