Economical.
A man who was 100 economical to
take his home paper sent his little
boy to borrowv a copy taken by his
neighbor. In his haste the boy ran
over 2 $4 stand of bees and in ten
minutes looked like a watery sum
mer squash. His cries reacted his
father who ran to his assistance and
failing to notice a harbed wire fence
ran into thaf, breaking 1t down, cut
ting @ handful of flesh from his an
atomy and ruining a $5 pair of pants
[he old cow took advantage of the
gap in the fence and killed herseif
eating green corn. Hearing thr rack
et, the wife ran out, upsetting a four
gallo™ churn full of rick cream Into
a basket as kittens, arowning the
whole flock. In a hurry she drop
ped a $7 set of false teeth. The
baby left alone, orawled through the
spilled milk into the parlor, ruining
4 brand new S2O carpet. During
the excitement the oldest daughter
ran away with the hired am, the
ldog broke up eleven setting hens,
(the calves got out and chewed the
talls off four fiue shirts. Moral:
Don’t boriow yonr neighbor’s paper
