The following true story is told by
an exchange and should be carefully
read by some people we know: Ibid
you ever hear tell of man who was
too economical to take his home pa
per, but sent his little boy to borrow
copy taken by neighbor. In his
haste the boy ran over a two dollar
stand of bees and in ten seconds look
ed like a warty summer squash. His
cries reached the father who ran to
her rescue and failing to notice a
barb wire fence ran into that, break
ing the fence down, cutting a hand
full of fish bait out of his anatomy
and running a four dollar pair of
pants. The old COW took advantage
of gap in the fence, got out, ate for
bloat. Hearing the racket the wife
ran out, upset a four gallon churn Of
rich cream into basket OF kittens
and drowned the whole mess. In a
hurry she dropped and broke a seven
dollar set of false teeth. The baby,
left alone, crawled through the flood
of cream and into the parlor, running
a bran new carpet. During the eX-
element the oldest daughter ran
away with book agent, the dog
broke up eleven sitting hens and the
calves got out and chewed the sleeves
from four fine shirts which hung on
the liuen
