The wife was always antagonized
by her husband going out at night.
His departing words, which espe-
cially angered her, were always,
Good night, mother of three"
But one night, she could stand
it no longer, and when he took his
hat, started out the door, and called
cheerily, Good night, mother of
three" she answered quite cheerily,
Good night, father of one"
Now he stays home.

Auntie Moytle replied That's

Grandmother surveyed the new

mother, "but it wasn't my knee

Tommy: Yes, Ma'am; fur, fur.
Teacher: Correct. Now tell me
