But Mrs. Skinner laid down and died. She and the old man were so stingy they never had ary hairs, therefore Mr. Skinrer inherited half of his own farm, which the bank took away from him, and the other half went to Mrs. Skinrer’s sisters.

The Hen and the Egg. There has been much talk and pal aver by the laymen and the ignorant geterally concerning that all impor- and tart question, vizzly: which came first, gives a verbal promise to pay for K’the hen or the egg, and this is the "next sadday.” and fails to do so, he j first time, so far as I know, that an can’t be reached with arything short eminent scientist has undertaker, to of a shotgun.

There are 3 distinct types of church members. There’s Mr. Jones who prays, ard Mr. Smith who sings, ard Mr. Green who pays. An ideal church member, is a praying-singing-paying individual who is not always too tired to atterd services on the Sabbath ard take an interest in the Wednesday night prayer meetings. For a man to be a successful prohi bition erforcement officer, he should krow how to shoot straight, and he should also be taught never to hesi tate about shooting. If he hears a subject. Well, to begin with, we know that the hen lays the egg ard then the hen that comes from the said egg lays an egg, and thus you see, perpetual motion has been brought about, but don’t forget the rooster; he has to be reckoned with in this all- mportar.t matter, for without the rooster, there would be nr. hen an4 without the hen there would be no egg ard without the egg and the hen, there vunld be r o roott»r, consequently ihe hvn and the rooster and the egg ara dependent up on ot.e another. would have en{)ed the chicken business and right here, it might he wise to say that if the her came first, whete did she come from if an egg was not her mother, and if an egg evoked from some jelly lying around on the. ground, how was she hatche dard by whom, where, and when? Answer me that. It is reasonably to thirk that the hen descended from the eagle, who knows? It is possible that an old eagle caught a little innocent lamb eors and eons ago, and when she saw how crueF she had beer, she became so ashamed of herself, she drew up into a small wad and thus, became a hen, and has been one to this day. If such was the case, she escaped the pullet age, which must of been mighty i.ice in those days, as pullets have a hard time havirg to do their own scratch ing. Of course, we men who are pos sessed of so much knowledge are aware of the fact that the rooster doe* fk« scratching for the female bird af ter she has reached the neighborhood of the cackling age. \ Ion instead of 20 cents as formerly.

It would have been an unfortunate thing for the cafes if the egg in question had been scrambled prior to being hatched. If such had taken pla:e, then cafes wouldn't have anything to serve to a customer except bread and butter, and hmm would t ot have a running mate •t it enjoys at present. I hope I have made myself plain and decided this perplexirg question to the satisfaction of all parties concerned. However, if you think the he: came first and then the egg. don't forget that you are doing so at your own risk, ard if your bust is never set up in the Hall of Fame, blame it on your stubbor. ess.
