THE GORGONZOLA LET LOOSE
A farmer from.Oimskirk way went into a restaurant in Liverpool and asked for some bread and cheese. ' What kind would you like r' inquired the waiter. ' Cheshire, Cheddar, or Gorgonzola?' 'Fancy name, that last,' said the farmer. { I think I'll try a bit o' that.' He thought it .so tasty that he took a pound home to his wife and left it on the sideboard in- the -kitchen. Next morning he~came in from his before-breakfast round and inquired if
she had found the parcel.- 'Oh, yes,' replied she, 'I saw it there all right. And very good mottled soap it is, no doubt, when you know how to use it. But I couldn't make it lather very well when I washed the children, and after I'd done they smelled so strong that I've turned them out for a breath of fresh air, just to sweeten 'em a bit before they go to school.'
