An old newspaper item lists a man eighteen to work in an office needing twenty five years of experience, plus a job for girls to sew buttons on the fourth floor. A Missouri farmer advertised a big fat hog inviting buyers to come and see. The snippet ends with a riddle about the difference between an armed act and a match and a curious line about a cat and a match, concluding with a garbled word Inend.
