Her Dilemma
Mrs. Newedd (excitedly)—Oh, John, dear, please hurry and send off a telegram for me.
Newedd—What’s the matter?
Mrs. Newedd—Why, I’m taking a correspondence course in cooking, and the cake I made is running all over the oven. I want to telegraph them quick to find out what to do.—From the Boston Transcript.
