TWO OF THEM
j Maine Man (finishing a story):— "Yes, sir ; I killed that bear with nothin' but this little jack-knife. Guess you never had a tussel with a bear, did ye ?" New York Champion : "Oh, yes. I was out fishing one day on Staten Island when a big bear made a rush for me and knocked the pole from my hand, leaving me without even that means of defence. Well, sir, I grabbed that bear, threw him down and held him there until he froze to I death." j Maine Man (gasping):—"l might'a' done that many a time myself, but the weather up our way don't change so quick as it does here."
