Borrowing. ami Something Besides.

Some people get in the habit Of Dor

NAV be food for their families. This is
all well enough occasionally, as we are
all in some measure dependent upon each
other. We frequently find ourselves
placed in situations when necessity oblig-
es us to resort to the kindness of neigh
bors. Bat we have known people be-
come so habitua.ed to the practice that
they will borrow when there is no ne
ccssitv: it becomes a second nature with
some.
We have heard the following story re-
lated OF one of these inveterate borrow
ers, not long since: Two neighbors
lived in close proximity, one borrower
and the other lender. The borrower
had been out Of pork for his family, and
had lived By borrowing Of his neighbor.
He had a fine porker to kill, as we'll as
the lender. and they agreed to change
work az killing time They did So
Killed both hogs The next morning,
the one that had accommodated his
neighbor, was congratulating himself
upon being free from calls for pork, when
two ofhis ne;ghbors children came in,
SAYING. PA wants to borrow some OF
your pork to cook some OF his in :"
