There is one man in this city
carrying something over two
hundred pounds Of avoirdupois
who is. row convinced that he
is not the athlete he was when
q young man. A few evenings
ago he and his good wife went
home rather late and found they
had forgotten their door key.
A little thing like that did rot
bother them as they knew the
bathroom window was unlock
ed so they thought they could
get in there. This window, as
most bath room windows, is
rather small and one glance
told the man Of the house that
he could not get more than
half way into that space so he
suggested that his wife, who is
built on more supple lines.
climb in and then cpep the
front door SO he could get in.
The wife thought that was a
good scheme but the window is
rather high from the ground
and she suggested that the hus-
band assist her in getting in.
Things were moving along
nicely and they were complet-
ing the job with as little noise
as possible, in order not to
awaken their neighbors, when
the lady gave one last kick to
raise herself into the window
This move was the right one in
the right place but the husband
was DONG all IN MS power 10
help shove and the kick caught
him just where the avoirdupois
is the most prominent, with the
result that he grabbed to save
himself from falling and he
and his amiable wife both roll
ed down the muddy embank-
ment into q small ditch and
awakened almost the entire
neighborhood. The neighbors
thought someone was trying to
break into their homes and
many Of them appeared in all
the latest styles of sheath
gowns and slit skirts. Explain
atoms were soon made but the
husband now carries a door key
fastened to his person with q
good stout chain.
