Show Bradstreet's Numbers. (Milwaukee Free Press.) At a plav recently given in one of the local theatres, two of the play people appeared ap-peared on the stage with two dojrr,, th merits of which they earnestly discussed. "My dog," said one. indicating a smart looking pup, "is an A1' clog." "In that case," observed the other, pointing to his dog. a yellow-haired mongrel mon-grel commonly known as a "iuri" "in that case my dog must be a 'K9.' " The joke was not apparent to a staid looking business man. who. with his wife, sat behind- the people who tell the story, and neither did his wife see the point. "Vat iss?" she asked, as everyone laughed. ' " 'Al.' " responded her 'husband, "dot's Bradstreet for anybody wont over $100.-000. $100.-000. 'KV dot's for anybody vorth less than $50,000." "Aeh." said his wife, "vat a lie." "Sure." said her husband. "I vouldn't give $10 for the best dog living." |
