The last time I wrote you, my pa had just got out of a bad scrape down cellar, and We all thought he was hurt but he" said he wasn’t, and if he was going down again he’d do it exactly the same way. Now I hate to hear my pa lie like this, cause my ma and our hired girl can do enough for all of us, telling about the big washings they had put out so quick, and how many young men they had on the string, and stuff like this. Pa says that ma was uglier looking than a last year’s bird’s nest, when he got her twenty years ago, and if she’d get a hoe and take of! some of the powder, paint and dirt he’d be darned if he thought she’d changed much. According to pa our hired girl and ma must have looked a lot alike, but I don’t want you to tell maor she’d dust my hip pocket for me, but it is a fact. When our hired girl laughs you couldn’t tell whether you were looking in the front end of a threshing machine, or getting a back view ofa Kansas cyclone going thru Missouri, and if you watch close you can count how many pancakes she ate for breakfast. Our girl is a warm member, all right, all right. but she can’t pull worth a cent with pa, and one morning pa said he was tired of paying out his hard-earned cash for hired girls who couldn’t boil water without burning it, and as he wasn’t busy, he’d run the kitchen department himself. Ma didn’t say anything, but looked kind of scared, and the hired girl borrowed a Sweet Caporal cigar- ette box that I wasn’t using, packed up her clothes, and moved out. l’a said the first thing on the program was the washing, and he was going to do it up quick and show the women that they didn’t know it all,â€"no sir, I not by a jug full. He yanked at the tub, but it caught on the corner of . our summer cookstove, the handle came off, and pa landed on the dog, as ' usual, and the dog tried to get away ' and pa went over backwards and ' struck his head on the table, and swore he was shot. Just about this ’ time, a can of preserves the hired girl ' had left on the table, got overbalanc- ed, and hit pa on the head and whisk- - ers, and from the color I guess pa thought it was blood and swore by the great horn spoon we had tried to murder him. and then the dog came back and saw the raspberries on the floor, and thought they were put there _ especially for him, for he started in to fill up. I guess pa didn’t like] his com- , pany, for he made a couple of passes l at him and missed and then got up . and made a kick at him, but the dog was too quick for him, and pa hit the old stove with his shin, and we had a circus. Pa said the dog hit him, and if the long-haired, curly-tailed son of , a sea cook came on the premises again he’d shoot him. Pa was holding his E? shin, doing a frog dance and quoting . Shakespeare all at the same time, but if Shakespeare had heard him I don’t think he’d have recognized himself. ’ Pa had put the water on to heat before he started, and about this time he got I . dizzy, or something, and, bumping a- ' _ gainst the stove, he knocked a leg out of it, and spilt the water all over him- self. The water was pretty hot, I can tell you, and pa got all he wanted I guess, for he hollered and cussed, said ' the Fenians were after him, and start- 5 ed on adead run for the stairs, trip- l’ ped on our best mat, and took a kind S of loop the loop dive. and landed on his fifth vest button on the washtub. Pa started to sweat, and I knew he .f was getting mad, but I suppose he had LS no wind, or couldn’t think of anything 1- good to say, for he lay on the tub as nicely as he lies in bed on a cold win- ter’s morning while we or ma gets up and starts the fire. He didn’t do a thing but puff and look at the dog, and the dog knew what was up and didn’t feel a bit scared. Pa looked too funny for anything with his whiskers full of raspberries and soap suds, and I had to go out behind the barn and, laugh. But then I felt sorry for pa, as he is pretty good to theâ€"far better than mais.
