A woman who was too economical
to subscribe for her home paper sent
her little son to borrow the copy
taken by her neighbor. In his haste
the boy ran over four dollar stand

like q warty Summer squash. His
cries reached his father, who ran to
his assistance. and, failing to notice
barbed wire fence, ran into it.

of flesh from his anatomy and ruin
ing five dollar pair of pants. The
old cow took advantage of the gap
in the fence and got into the corn
field and killed herself eating corn
Hearing the racket, the mother ran
upset four gallon churn of rich
cream into basket of kittens, drown
Ming the whole litter. In her hurry she
dropped and broke, past all hope of
mending, a twenty-five dollar set OF
false teeth. The baby, left alone,
crawled through the spilled cream
and into the parlor. running twenty
dollar carpet. During the, excitement
the eldest daughter ran away with
the hired man. the dog broke up
eleven setting hens, and the calves
got out and chewed the tails off of
four. fine shirts.
And all to save fifty cents.
