BETZVnI1E TALES
Mr.. Pethcod Scroggs' Identical 7wins
@HfBy Ellis Darker" BuHetI
~ A1dhor of"Pi8s isP;9s Etc Sa3
ILLUSTRATED BY PETER NEWELL

Mr.. Pethcod Scroggs, of our vii
1age, has almost more trouble than
any other man in Betzville, his twins
are so identically alike. It makes it
all the worse that both twins are
identically the same age, for it would
be easier to tell them apart If one
was few years older than the other.
Pethcod says he does not often COM
plain about the ways of nature, but
that If he had had the inventing of
twins, he would have left an inter-
val of, say, four or eight years be-
tween them, or, If they had to be of
the same age, he would have sort of
distributed them into two different
families. He says he considers two
twins at once in the same family as
almost a personal insult.
Last Wednesday one of Pethcod's
four-year-old twins wandered away
from the house and got lost in the
big woods back of Uncle Jed Free
mans farm, and it worried Pethcod
and Mrs. Scroggs nearly crazy. 1t
was about five o'clock when he had
a feeling that maybe one of the twins
was lost, but he didn't know wheth-
er 1t was John or Joe. He went out

important, and that petition ought
to be drawn up, petitioning the chair
man to appoint a searching commit
tee to search the woods and find Joe
as quickly as possible, but it was too
late by that time to get the petition
ready, SO the meeting adjourned. to
meet the next night. and Pethcod was
instructed to have the petition all
ready.
He went home feeling a lot bet
ter in his mind, since he had got mat
tiers moving along in the right d.
rection, and the only thing that trou.
bled him much was John, who in
terfered with the regular household
affairs the next day. Pethcod had tied
him to the pump in such way that
the handle of the pump was tied in
with him, so the family could not
pump any water, and Pethcod was so
busy drawing up the petition that he
had no time to unite John. Our duty
to lost child should always be fore.

When the meeting met the next
night the petition was accepted and

went through with rush, and in less
than three hours the search commit.
tee had got it's torches and lanterns
and was on its way into the big woods
to find Joe.
Just about then Mrs. Pethcod
Scroggs became so thirsty her tongue
hung out, and she simply had to have
drink of water, so she went out to
the pump, but the minute she saw
John she gave a scream, for it was
not John at all, but Joe. She knew
by the way he snored that she must
have been mistaken when she thought
he was John, and she was so cha.
grined and startled that she forgot
all about being thirsty and started ut
full whoop after the search commit
tee. She went leaping through the
big woods yelling as loud as she
could, and just as she came up with
the search committee the committee
had found Joe, and were singing
song of triumph that Dave Giftings'
boy had thoughtfully written for the
occasion to the tune of John Browns
body. 1t went like this:
Joe, Joe Pethcod. he is found and he is
found,
Joe, Joe Pethcod, he is found and he is
found,
Joe, Joe Pethcod, he is found and he is
found,
He is found and he is found.
They had just finished the first
verse when Mrs. Pethcod ran up
screaming:
stop! Stop! Stop finding Joel" she
cried. 1T is John that is LOST"
But she was already too late, for
they had found Joe. So there was
nothing to do but to call a meeting
OF the committee, and the COMMITTEES
decided, quite properly. that as they
had started out to find one twin and
hadn't found him, the whole list of
parliamentary rules were broken by
finding the other, and that there was
nothing to do but go home and start
over again the next day. So they told
John to stay where he was and they
would come out and find him the
next day. properly and in his right
name. Then they passed a resolu.
ton of censure against Mrs. Pethcod
for giving wrong information and
went home, and they would have
found John properly the next day,
only the little skeesicks tagged along !
behind them all the way home.

into the yard and there was one of
the twins, scooting around as lively
as could be, and then Pethcod ran
around to the other side of the house,
and there was the other twin-or at
least 1t seemed so-but he couldn't
be sure, the twins are so lively.
Pethcod says he ran around the
house for over an hour, and some
times he thought it was both twins
and sometimes he thought it was only
one, moving from place to place, but
at last he got so puzzled that he took
the twin and tied it to the pump, and
then when he went around the house
he saw that there was no other twin
there, and he knew the other twin
must have wandered into the big
woods and got lost
then, and Pethcod knew that the
only thing to do was to get up a
search party and search the woods,
and he would have done it immedi-
ately, but he couldn't decide which
twin 1t was that was lost. He stood
and looked at the twin that he had
tied to the pump, and sometimes he
thought it was John, and sometimes
he thought it was Joe, but he couldn't
be positive, and until he could be
sure he wasn't going to start a search
party, for it would be plumb foolish
to start out search party to find a
twin that wasn't lost.
About the time he was getting per.
fectly discouraged Mrs. Scroggs came
out and he told her what was the mat
ter, and she stood awhile and looked
at the captive twin, and then she
spoke right up.
That's joint" she said positively.
All right then" said Pethcod, and
he went right down to the post Office
and gave the alarm that Joe was
lost in the big woods, and Uncle
Ashdod Clute Immediately got on a
box and organized a public meeting
to consider the best thing to do. The
first thing he did was to nominate
himself chairman of the meeting, and
he appointed Pethcod secretary, and
named vice-chairman and a second
vice-chairman. So that got things
started all right, and Pethcod wrote
a letter to himself, stating that Joe
was lost, and then he read the letter
to the meeting, and 1t was the unani.
