He Did Not Hear It.

Johnny Fizzletop had been over to the house of a neighbor, Col. Percy Yer ger. “Well, Johnny,” asked Maj. Fizzletop, “did you have a nice*time over at Goh Yerger’s?” “Oh, yes, I had a nice time, and, pa, they are going to have cabbage for dinner.” “Haven’t I told you forty times that you must never repeat what you have heard at people's houses." “But, pa, I didn’t hear anything about the cabbage, I smelled it with my nose.”— Texas Siftings.
