broken heart

1937 as a gangling Infant, a
gift of the late publisher Wil
liam Randolph Hearst. He grew
to a towering 16 feet and 430
pounds.
But he never found love.
When he made tentative ad
vances to Zoobelle, her mate
Baffe chased him off.
Muggins seemed to brood on
silent walks around his en
closure. Three years ago, Raffe died.
Muggins perked up. But the
widow not only scorned him,
she chased him off.
Yesterday, he was found
dead.
An autopsy confirmed the
broken heart diagnosis.
Muggins' heart had been
pierced by a piece of wire he
apparently swallowed.

BERG'S "GOT" A PICKET
T. THE DISPUTE: ... a demand that a union
journeyman butcher be on duty at all
times the stores are open. . . . Berg's re
fuse . . . because this costs you money . . .
for an unneeded butcher increases the
distribution costs of food.
2. Berg's bonus plan has always paid Berg's
butchers far in excess of any union scale.
Our BUTCHERS like it. . . . ASK THEM !
3. BERG'S DUTY: ... to always give the pub
lic the best foods possible and at the low
est possible price.
4. Berg's refuse to accept "featherbedding"
. . . because "featherbedding" costs the
public money.
Thank you.
