_THE_ FABLE _OF_ HOW UNCLE BREWSTER WAS _TOO_ SHIFTY _FOR THE_ TEMPTER

When Uncle Brewster had put on his Annual Collar and combed his Beard
and was about to start to the Depot, his Wife, Aunt Mehely, looked at
him through her Specs and shook her Head doubtfully.
Then she spoke as follows: "You go slow there in the City. You know your

you're just like as not to Raise Ned."
"I guess I can take keer of myse'f about as well as the Next One,"
retorted Uncle Brewster.
