RECIPROCITY.
While village blacksmith toiled
manfully over an old farmers plough
share the owner of the share recounted
at some length the wonderful success
he had had with three filters OF pigs he
had marketed that day.
"Them pigs was less than eight
months DID," the farmer said, "and
they brought me twice as much as
they would have done few years ago.
[ tell you the farmer is having his
harvest now"
The smith, having finished sharpen
ing the share, handed it to his GUS
toner. From a we'll worn purse the
farmer took out the usual price for the
job and dropped it into the smiths
hand.
You'll have to give more" said the
smith; still holding the money in his
outstretched palm. 81 charge double
now for sharpening that size plough
share.
"Why, how now?" the farmer ex-
claimed, testify. CHATS an outrage!
Why have you raised the price on
me?"
"To buy some Of that high-pr.ced
pork you were tellin' me about" said
the smith.
