THERE'S A WOMAN IN OUR TOWN
Who is bride, determined to keep
her house and serve her meals in the
very most approved fashion. She or
dered eggs from her grocer one day
and was told that the best eggs were
35 cents dozen. That was the kind
she must have. The next time she
wanted eggs, the price had dropped
five cents. When the groceries were
delivered she noticed the bill marked
80 cents for eggs. She called up the
store and told them to come right back
after those eggs and bring her the
best quality-she would have nothing
but thirty five cent eggs.
