ONE TO THE YOKEL.
A cycling masher was coasting down a country road the other day when his hat blew off. A passing countryman picked it up and took it to him as he circled round, saving him the trouble of gettin off. ‘ I must get some string to keep it on,’ the masher said, as he wheeled off without a word of thanks. The yokel’s reply was short but expressive. It was simply— 4 Get a nail!’
