s was partly filled and turned upside
c down, floating in the larger one. 4
: cork and a rubber hose completed tn
n joke. Doc announced that he VIII
/ couldn't sink the smaller bottle ha,
/ weak lungs. Everyone else had tries
r when it came L. E. 9 turn. He blew
/, and blew and blew. He blew so har,
/ that what little hair he has left on tn
# top of his head stood on end. LAIR
|, Marks took the bottle then and man
e aged to sink the little one without get
e ting very red in the face. So L. E
s tried again. He blew until the button
j. flew off his vest and the veins stoo
r out on the top of his head like ropes
:; but the little bottle didn't even wavel
/, He had to give up. Then Doc took tn
j. bottle, held it at arms length, and BILE,
l. gently in its direction and: the little on
t; inside Immediately sank. The who'll
). secret was in the pressure of the fir
= gers on the outside of the bottle TIL
l. little rubber tube didn't even go thr
the cork.
