Barometer Was Correct
A man on the coast of Florida wrote- to a New York store for a barometer. When it arrived he unpacked it and discovered that the instrument was set at “Hurricane.”
He tapped it, and it did not budge. He hung it on the wall, tapped it again, and still, it did not budge. Very angry, he wrote a strong letter to the store, and then went out to post it. When he returned his house as well as the new barometer ,had been blown away.
