‘ You’re late, young man. What’s the reason?’ ‘ Had a toothache.’ ‘Ah! Has the tooth stopped aching?’ ‘ Dunno. ’ ‘ What ? Don’t know ! Why don't you know ?’ ‘ ’Cause it’s pulled.’ Young Wife (to husband): Don’t you notice a difference in the milk, dear ? Young husband : les, this is much better than we have been getting. Young wife : Very much better ; I got it off a new man. He said he would, guarantee it to be perfectly pure, and so I bought enough to last for a week.
