Mister Ron's Basement #1758

We have dug up some little-known gems from Mortimer Thomson, better known to one and all as Q. K. Philander Doesticks, P. B.

Today's piece was dug out of the Saturday Evening Post in 1861 - it's called 'What Doesticks' Wife Wanted.'

Time: approx nine and a half minutes
