The Whole Family
In Trouble

The man who was too economi-
cal to buy a clock sent his little
boy to get the time from a neigh
Dor this rainy weather. In his
haste the boy ran over a $500
stand of bees and in ten minutes
looked like a water sum m e r
squash. His cries reached his
father, who ran to his assistance
and failing to notice a barbed wire
fence ran into that breaking it
down, cutting a handful of flesh
from his anatomy and running
a S.. 90 pair of pants. The old COW
took advantage Of the gap in the
fence and got into the corn field
and killed herself eating green
corn. Hearing the racket, the
wife ran out, upsetting a four
gallon churn full of rich cream
into basket Of kittens, drowning
the whole flock. In the hurry
she dropped $500 set of false
teeth. The baby, left alone,
crawled through the spilled milk
into the parlor, running a brand
new $4,000 carpet. During the
excitement, the oldest daughter
ran away with the hired man, the
dog broke up eleven setting hens,
the calves got out and chewed the
tails off of four fine shirts.
