Jasper County Democrat, Volume 7, Number 32, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 12 November 1904 — He Wanted a Rest. [ARTICLE]
He Wanted a Rest.
.“Yea,” aaya the meek looking man at the crowded summer hotel, “I brought my wife here for a rest." “For a rest?” asks the friend who knows what an excellent home the man has. “Yea, and for comfort” “You came away from that fine, big house of yours, with all the wide spread of lawn about it and all those beautiful flowers, and coop yourselves up in a 6 by 8 room here and call it rest and comfort?” “Sure,” aaya the meek looking man—“sure! Down here I don’t have to push a lawn mower or sprinkle towers all the time."—Chicago Tribune
