Help
The farmer found his new hired man very unsatisfactory. A neighbor who
chanced along inquired:
"How's that new hand o' your'n?"
"Cuss the critter!" was the bitter reply. "He ain't a hand--he's a sore
thumb."

A savage old boar got into a garden, and was doing much damage. When two
men tried to drive it out, the animal charged. One of the two climbed a
tree, the other dodged, and laid hold on the boar's tail. He hung on
desperately, and man and beast raced wildly round and round the tree.
Finally, the man shouted between gasps:
"For heaven's sake, Bill, climb down here, and help me leggo this ornery
old hog!"
