How She Got It
A little girl was sent by her mother to the grocery store with a jug for a quart of vinegar.
“But, mamma,” said the little one, “I can’t say that word.”
“But you must try,” said the mother, “for I must have vinegar and there’s no one else to send.”
So the little girl went with the jug, and as she reached the counter of the store she pulled the cork out of the jug with a pop, swung the jug on the counter with a thud, and said to the astonished clerk:
“There! Smell of that and give me a quart!”
