Show Useful Relative. "Yes, my mother-in-law can make 'herself very useful at times." "Glad you are fair enough to admit it." "Of course I'll admit it. Why, just the other morning she was so provoked pro-voked at me because I didn't get up and chop the ice off the front steps that she went out herself with a broom and ice pick. She is a stout lady, and when she slipped on the 1 top step and bumped herself all the way to the sidewalk she fell so hard that she cracked the ice on every step. Then her language regarding my shortcomings was so warm that it melted all the fragments and left the steps as clean and smooth as they ever are in July." |
