And Yet She Wasn’t Tired.
“I’m awful tired,” Dusenberry said, as he flung himself into a ohair aftoi •upper. “What did you do to-day?” meekly asked his wife. ; ’ “Filled a large order, wrote three letters, went twice to the bank, and higgled with Branson until he threw |9 off his bill.” “And that made you tired, eh? Well, I prepared three meals, baked six loaves of bread, got the children, ready for school, mended all your Clpthes, cleaned the stair-rods, stoned three pounds of raisions, picked five quarts of berries, weeded the flower bed, white-washed the cellar, and phased an impudent tramp off the premises. And I don't say that I'm tired, either!”— Detroit Free Press.
