Show The Latest About The Stingy Man. Here is the latest story of the man who is too stingy to take his home paper: "A man who was too economical econom-ical to take this paper sent his little boy to borrow the copy taken by his neighbor. In his haste the bov ran over a $4 stand of bees, and in ten minuets looked like a watery summer squash. His cries reached his father who ran to his assistance, and failin g to notice a barbed wire fence ran into that breaking it down, cutting a handful hand-ful of flesh from his anatomy, and ruining ruin-ing a $4 pair of pants. The old cow took advantage of the gap in the fence, and got into the corn field, and killed herself eating- green corn. Hearing the racket the wife ran, upset a four gallon churn full of rich cream into a basket of kittens, drowning the whole flock. In the hurry she dropped a S7 set of false teeth. The baby left alone, crawled through spilled milk and into the parlor, ruiuing a brand new $20 carpet. During the excitement the oldest old-est daughter ran away with the hired man, the dog broke up eleven setting hens, and the calves got out and chewed chew-ed the tails off four fine shirts." |
