Show Lazy William. "You are advertising for a chauffeur, I see, Mrs. De Payste." "Yes, we had to let William go last week." "I thought you were well pleased with him." "At first we were, but a new broom sweeps clean, you know, and we found that William was lazy. He was fine at washing the windows, spading the garden, gar-den, pumping the vacuum cleaner, mowing the lawn, tending the furnace, running errands, pressing clothes, sweeping the walks, polishing the floors, oiling the furniture, preparing the vegetables, waiting on table and doing the dishes. But he was lazy. He used to go to sleep at midnight regularly, regu-larly, no matter where he was. Many . a time Mr. De Payste has left the club for home at two o'clock in the morning morn-ing and found William snoring in the car outside. Imagine how it must have looked to our friends to see our chauffeur chauf-feur asleep in the street!" |
