Show Dr. Cunningham Knew It. Dr. Robert A. Cunningham of Augusta, Au-gusta, Me., told this joke at his own expense. Ho had lost his night key, the door was locked, he was cold from a long ride, nnd the more he rang the door hell the more the suspicion grew In his mind that some one had chloroformed chloro-formed the household. Hut his sister had been aroused by tho bell. She said to herself: "It la some one to see thj doctor and ho Is out. I must answer the bell, or they'll ring all night." Sho hurried down to the door, scantily scant-ily clad and filled with Impatience. She opened tho door just a crack and shouted loudly Into- the frosty nlr, "Tho doctor's out," and tho door closed with a bang. "Yes, I know he's out," screamed tho doctor, "and he wants to get In." |
