I could get that rabbit with a stone." Just then the rabbit was seen again. _ Little Brother. picked up a stone, sent it flying at the rabâ€" bit, then went over and picked up the dead bunny saying, "Come on home, Charley, you‘re too poor a sportsman for me to waste time she gave her hair a good brushing, ready to put it up in curlers. Then she remembered she left themat Myrtle‘s the night before lastâ€"and forgot to stop in for them when she went by.

But, he revealed, he was in dire need of advice. ; ~ Finally the day came when was ready for his vacation. . It was his intention to bring back a wife. "Which," he asked, "do, you think I should take . . . a cookâ€"andâ€"sew wife or a singâ€"andâ€" dance wife?" i My husband looked gravely down his nose. The matter, he told Ling, was of too much importance for another to decide. . ‘"You are the one to spend your life with her," he told Ling, "and therefore you must use your own judgment." While Ling was gone our famiâ€" ly speculated> mildly upon the choice he would make. â€" Small bets |were even placed on .the side â€" with odds uufi the "singâ€"andâ€" dance" type, of Ling‘s fruâ€" gal instincts. Finally Ling arrived with the wife of his bosom. ~One glance setâ€" tled our speculations. She was definitely on the singâ€"andâ€"dance side. We were astonished. However, Ling probably knew all the time what he was doing. The little bride soon got a job as entertainer at a Chinese resâ€" taurant, thereby contributing subâ€" stantially to the family income.
