Case of Ham Stringing
Tom Payne went to town last Sat
urday afternoon and browsed around
among the bargains, while in the Pro
duce company’s store. He saw, by
buying a picnic ham he would have
achance .to guess on the weight of a
large ham, and of course win the ham.
A few minutes past 9 o’clock that
evening the phone rang and Tom ans
iwered very quickly and Mr. Price
‘at the other end of the line says: “Is
this Payne?” “Yes.” “Were you in
the Produce Co. store this after
noon ?” “Yes.” “Did you lose $12?”
“Absolutely note—didn’t have any
sl2 to lose.” “Well, we are holding
about sl2 in value for you—you get
big ham.” Just then some one in the
store said something to Mr. Price and
he said to Payne, “Just hold the line
awhile.” Then Payne said to Mrs.
|P., “My dear, we get the big ham.l
I made the closest guess, but could?
have done lots better than that if
I had. tried.” Under normal condi
‘tions Tom wears a 38 coat, but just
then a 44 would have fit tight about
the chest. Then Mr. Price said, “Hel
lo, Payne! Am awfully sorry. but the
boys find on checking over again, that
another party guessed 15 ounces clos
er than you did.” Then Tom, in a
very meek, subdued voice -said', “Well,
the other party gets the ham, and I get
near ham, which leaves about as bad
a taste in your mouth as near her,
but this convinces me that my heart
condition has greatly improved—for
this was some shock.”
