Show CONSCIENCE AWAKENED An exchange tells a story about a man who was caught out in the woods during a storm. He didn't want to get wet, and the only dry place he could find was a hollow log, into which he ... managed to crawl. The rain lasted a couple of hours, when the fellow de-dided de-dided that he had better go home. He tried to extricate himself from the log, but the soft wood had swelled and he couldn't budge. There alone in the desolate woods, many miles from the nearest habitation, the poor man lay thinking of all the mean things he had done, when all at once it dawned upon him that he had read his home paper for three years without paying a cent for it, and it made him feel so small that he crawled out of the log through n knot-hole. |
