Little Mary’s Suggestion.
Her father took Mary out for a walk
one day in the country. They passed
a pasture where some bulls were in
closed. The bulls were bellowing, and
Mary s father attempted an imitation
of it, to the great amusement of Mary,
who finally said, after many encores
had been rendered for her benefit,
“Daddy, wouldn't it be a good joke if
we were to hide behind a tree, and
when people came, by you would undo
your voice and frighten them.”
