TOO OFTEN.
Angry Purchaser; “Didn’t you tell me that you had got as many as 12 eggs in one day from those eight hens you sold me?” Poultry Raiser: “Yes, ma’am.” Angry Purchaser: “Then why is it that I’m never able to get more than two eggs from them, and sometimes*not so many, in one day?” Poultry Raiser: “I don’t know, ma’am, unless it’s because you look ,for eggs too often; Now, if you look for them only once a week,' I feel quite positive that you will get just as many eggs in one day as I did.” -
