HIGH-BRED HENS.
Neighbour : ‘ What beautiful hens you have, Mrs Stuckup.’ Mrs Stuckup : ‘ Yes, they are all imported fowls.’ Neighbour: ‘You don’t tell me so’ I suppose they lay eggs every day ?’ Mrs Stuckup (proudly): • They could do so if thev saw proper, but our circumstances are such that my hens are not required to lay eggs every day.'
The Modern She : ‘ Don’t stay up for me, George I’m going for a night with the girls.’
