quite willing to admit that it had some
times occurred to me that if Maud
wouldn't eat butter, why, it was just so
much net saving in the household ex-

y Il don't know where Maud got the
figures, but I suppose that she and her
mother must have figured IN the family
butter bills enough to reach approx
nately the annual cost per head. The
real joke about this bill, however, is
that it will have to be paid. You would
have paid for the butter if l had eaten
it as I went along. wouldn't your asks
