 One week before giving" my wife reechoed. And why. pTay2s
 Because this will give our guests 8 chance to recover from your cook ing before the real day Of prayer comes around. and by that time they will begin to think about you with kindness, perhaps
 My wife stung me with her cruel eyes and went out in the kitchen. where the new cook was breaking a lot of our best dishes which did not appeal to her.
 The name of this new cook was Ollie.
 When Ollie came to the house to get job, my wife asked her for her recommendations
 Ollie said that her face was her only recommendation; but that she was out late the night before and broke her recommendation just above the chin
 Anyway. my wife engaged Ter. be cause what good is healthy apre- tie when the kitchen is empty2
 Ollie said that she was a frst-class cook but when We dared her to prove t she forgot my wife was a lady and threw the coal scuttle at her.
 A day or two after Ollie arrived determined to find out what merit there was in vegetarian diet
 All right. l said to the cook. after the last plate of hash with all it's fond memories had disappeared. this house is going on diet for a few days. and heneeforth We are all vegetarians, in cluding the dog Please govern your. self accordingly
