Guaranteed.

I bought a hen from Reuben
Wrenn, he said that it would lay,
and in my need, he guaranteed, I'd
have an egg a day. l took his word
that this old bird would soothe and
comfort me with golden fruit that
/ could shoot into my face with
glee. My neighbors' hens, in coops
and pens, were laying all the time !;
and, justly proud, they cackled loud
each egg was worth a dime. But
my old fowl put up no howl, an
nouncing eggs newborn; it loafed
around and clawed the ground and
ate ton of corn. Nine weeks went
past and then at last I called on Mr..
Wrenn. "The fowl I bought" I said,
distraught, 'is but a tinhorn hen.
Oh. other fowls, including owls,
will play the laying games, but my
old bird is never stirred by sane or
lofty aims. She eats my corn, this
bird tinhorn, till she's become a
bore, and if boil an egg in oil l buy
it at the store. 1t was agreed, you
guaranteed, she'd lay an egg day !;
so now make good-you know you
should-and take the hen away
No tongue or pen," cried Mr..
Wrenn, could tell how tired I feel!
You fed her corn! You rouse my
scorn! You should have fed her
meal! Get hence, get hencel You
have no sense! I thought you knew,
you swab, that hens won't lay if fed
on hay and field corn on the cob"

which recited that men lured by con-
tractors were furnished with Gig

which were included in the cost list
of the contract in the reports sent in
by the contractors.
