It was Saturday afternoon and he'd been hitting up the bock beer flagons all the way home. He was savage because his evening meal was not ready for him three hours ahead of time, and he had made for her, with his hairy paw upraised to strike, as said above. “Don't you remember, Jim, that we were married just nine years ago today?” said Now, it is just as likely as not—indeed, if| “Great sport you are, aren't you?” said | the frail little woman, again.
