A Real Job
usesessz;sseszxss&s&ssesss

In all my born days never put in
such an afternoon" mumbled the de
partment manager.
In all my born days l never put in
such an afternoon, repeated the blue
eyed typist, who was taking her let"
ters direct on the machine.
Hold on! Wait a moment, Miss
McWillikers! My mind is wandering.
That musing remark of mine was not
to 90 in the letter. 1t was an 'aside,'
as it were, and was caused by the
mental stress l have undergone in the
past few hours.
And, Miss McWillikers, if you are
in quest of an occupation that will be
new and paying, have found the very
thing. You will undoubtedly make
more in a day than you can by typing
in a month. And I'll give you the first
trial at it.
The thing is taking little tots to
the dentists and sparing little tender
hearted parents hours of mental tor.
ture All you've got to do for the
money is to take my Willie, for in
stance, over to Doctor Molar and re-
main by his side until the learned
tooth expert has finished the dental
carpentry that is to be done on the
child"
ooh. how simpIe!" beamed the blue
eyed typist.
Simple indeed replied the depart,
| mcnt manager.
And after that, all you'll have to
| do is keep the dentist from flying OF
the handle and placate little Willie
| every time he goes on a rampage and
| threatens to wreck the office equip
| mont.
when you enter the dental parlor
Willie will be very docile. Likewise
| the dentist will be as amiable as hu,
manly possible. That's because he
doesn't know Willie.
willie will SIT in the chair quiet
| ly and the dentist will unsheath his
probes and other weapons without
| any untoward signs of hostility.
Then the dentist will ask Willie to
open his face and Willie will get un-
| duly suspicious and cIose his little
| map tighter than a clam. The dentist
VII become jocular and try to hood
| wink Willie into saying something so
| he can insert a block of wood and
| keep the orifice open. AS the dentist
| attempts this maneauver Willie will
| give sudden reflex with his left
| limb and kick the doctor in the solar
| plcxus.
"By this time the dentist and Willie
| are sworn enemies. One is determ.n-
| ed to master the other. If the dentist
were wise he'd put on a baseball
/ Catchers stomach pad and mask and
| sal into Willie without fear or favor,
I hut, Of course, such rough tactics
/ would chill to the marrow the loving
I papa or mamma who saw their off
spring treated so rudely. That's why
| there's a fine opening for heartless
| stranger who will take other folks
kids to the dentists at SO much per"
ooh, couldn't see 'em suffer-" ex,
claimed the blue-eyed typ.st, tenderly
"But-but Willie has another ap-
pointment at that blooming dentists"
! said the department manager, land
! if you'll take the afternoon off and ac-
company him there you'll save your
grateful office assistant from nervous
prostration.'
