Humour
A
Night caller (past perfect continuous)
Sarah Robinson was well-known among her friends for being extremely
well-mannered. When the telephone rang at half past three one morning, she spoke
calmly into the receiver, even though she had been sleeping soundly. On
the other end of the line was an angry male voice. He complained that her dog
had been barking all night and that it had been keeping him and his wife
awake. Sarah thanked the caller for telling her and politely asked him for his
name and number before hanging up. The next morning at precisely half past
three, Sarah called her neighbour back.
‘Good morning, Mr Grant. I just called to let you know that I don't have a dog.’

CHAPTER VI
Monday morning found Tom Sawyer miserable. Monday morning always found him like
this because it began another week's slow suffering in school. He generally
began that day with wishing he had had no holiday at the weekend, it made going
into captivity and chains again so much more hateful.
Tom lay in bed thinking. It soon occurred to him that he wished he was sick,
then he could stay home from school. Here was a vague possibility. He checked
himself and found no illness, and he investigated again. This time he thought he
could detect symptoms of a stomach illness, and he began to encourage them with
considerable hope. But they soon grew weak and disappeared completely.
He reflected further and suddenly he discovered something. One of his upper
front teeth was loose. This was lucky and he was about to begin to groan and
complain, as a "starter," as he called it, when it occurred to him that if he
came into court with that argument, his aunt would pull it out, and that would
hurt. So he thought he would hold the tooth in reserve for the present, and look
further.
Nothing appeared for a while, and then he remembered hearing the
doctor talk about a certain thing that kept a patient in bed for two or three
weeks and threatened to make him lose a finger. So the boy took out his sore toe
from under the sheet and held it up for inspection. But now he did not know the
necessary symptoms. However, it seemed well worthwhile to take a chance, so he
started groaning with energy and enthusiasm.
But Sid slept on unconscious. Tom groaned louder, and believed that he began to
feel pain in the toe. No result from Sid. Tom was breathless with his exertions
by this time. He took a rest and some deep breaths and let out a succession of
admirable groans.
Sid snored on.
Tom was aggravated. He said, "Sid, Sid!" and shook him. This course worked well,
and Tom began to groan again. Sid yawned, stretched, then brought himself up on
his elbow, and began to stare
at Tom. Tom went on groaning. Sid said:
"Tom! Hey, Tom!" [No response.]
"Here, Tom! TOM! What is the matter, Tom?" And he shook him and looked in his
face anxiously.
Tom moaned: "Oh, don't, Sid. Don't shake me."
"Why, what's the matter, Tom? I must call auntie."
"No, never mind. It'll be over soon, maybe. Don't call anybody."
"But I must! DON'T groan so much, Tom, it's awful. How long you been this way?"
"Tom, why didn't you wake me sooner? Oh, Tom, DON'T! It makes my flesh crawl to
hear you. Tom, what is the matter?"
"I forgive you everything, Sid. [Groan.] Everything you've ever done to me. When
I'm gone……"
"Oh, Tom, you're not dying, are you? Don't, Tom, oh, don't. Maybe….."
"I forgive everybody, Sid. [Groan.] Tell them this, Sid. And Sid, you give my
window-cloth and my cat with one eye to that new girl that's come to town, and
tell her…."
But Sid had grabbed his clothes and gone. Tom’s imagination was working so well
that he was really suffering now, and so his groans had become quite believable.
But she ran up-stairs, nevertheless, with Sid and Mary at her heels. And her
face grew white, too, and her lip trembled. When she reached the bedside she
gasped out: "You, Tom! Tom, what's the matter with you?"
"Oh, auntie, I'm…."
"What's the matter with you? What is the matter with you, child?"
"Oh, auntie, my sore toe's dead!"
The old lady sank down into a chair and laughed a little, then cried a little,
then did both together. This made her feel better and she said: "Tom, what a
fright you gave me. Now you shut up that nonsense and stop this."
The groans stopped and the pain vanished from the toe. The boy felt a little
foolish, and he said: "Aunt Polly, it SEEMED dead, and it hurt so much I never
noticed my tooth at all."
"Your tooth, indeed! What's the matter with your tooth?"
"One of them's loose, and it aches really badly."
"There, there, now, don't begin that groaning again. Open your mouth. Well, your
tooth IS loose, but you're not going to die from that. Mary, get me a silk
thread, and a chunk of fire out of the kitchen."
Tom said: "Oh, please, auntie, don't pull it out. It doesn't hurt any more. I
wish I may never get up if it does. Please don't, auntie. I don't want to stay
home from school."
"Oh, you don't, don't you? So all this fuss was because you thought you'd get to
stay home from school and go fishing? Tom, Tom, I love you so much, and you seem
to try every way you can to break my old heart with your outrageousness."
By this time the dental instruments were ready. The old lady tied one end of the
silk thread to Tom's tooth with a loop and tied the other to the bedpost. Then
she took the chunk of fire and suddenly pushed it almost into the boy's face.
The tooth hung dangling by the bedpost, now.
But all traumas have their compensations. As Tom walked to school after
breakfast, he was the envy of every boy he met because the gap in his upper row
of teeth enabled him to spit in a new and
admirable way. He collected a large following of lads interested in the
exhibition, and one boy who had cut his finger and had been the centre of
fascination until now, suddenly found himself with no fans and without any
glory. His heart was heavy, and he said with a dislike which he did not feel
that it wasn't anything special to spit like Tom Sawyer, but another boy said,
"Sour grapes!" and he wandered away a dismantled hero.
