"With a fierce glance at the clerk, the smart H employer rushed up to the woman, and said: H '"We have plenty in reserve, ma'am; plenty H upstairs." H "Lady and clerk looked dazed, and afterward E the smart proprietor learned that the clerk's i jH remark had been made in answer to the woman's H 'We haven't had any rain lately." Exchange. H |
