Pass the salt for a. sample from the Liars’ Convention:—“l’m a pig-' breeder, and I’ve'just .lost every one of my pigs. In the rainy season as they walked round in the mud, halls of mud. formed on their tails. These balls.. of mud got larger and larger until the skin on the backs of those pigs was drawn back so tight that the poor dears couldn’t close their eyes. The died from insomnia.” Mr "Raymond Tondreau, of South Berwick, Maine, asked the Liars’ Club to. believe this: —“Joseph Rellavo, a painter, tells me that while Imnting for rabbitn without a. weapon, he reached into his pocket and. found a. pepper castor. Sprinkling a. little pepper near a rocky hole he waited only a moment. Then a rabbit came out, and began to sneeze so violently that it hit its head against the peppered ledge an,d knocked its brains out.” .
