An exchange says a western editor has
invented an infernal machine which he
places in an envelope and sends to those
who “refused” the paper after taking it
for three years without paying for it.
The machine explodes and kills the
whole family and the fragments that fall
in the backyard kill the dog. There are
moral objections to the use of this ma
chine, and we have a patent pending for
an improvement that lets the family and
the dog out of the general wreck.
