"Junior"
Junior was one of those holy terrors and her
husband was surprised when his wife suggested
that they buy him a bike for his birthday.
"Do you really believe that'll help improve his
behavior?" he said.
"Well, no," she admitted, "But it'll spread it over
a wider area."

"Live-In Maid"
A husband and his wife advertised for a live-in maid
to cook and do the housework. They hired a lovely
lass for the job.
She worked out fine, was a good cook, was polite,
and kept the house neat. One day, after about six
months, she came in and said she would have to quite.
"But why?" asked the disappointed wife.
She hemmed and hawed and said she didn't want
to say, but the wife was persistent, so finally she said,
"Well on my day off a couple of months ago I met this
good-looking fellow from over in the next county, and
well, I'm pregnant."
The wife said, "Look, we don't want to lose you. My
husband and I don't have children, and we'll adopt
your baby if you will stay."
She talked to her husband; he agreed, and the maid
said she would stay. The baby came, they adopted it,
and all went well.
After several months though, the maid came in again
and said that she would have to quit. The wife questioned
her, found out that she was pregnant again, talked to her
husband, and offered to adopt the baby if she would stay.
She agreed, had the baby, they adopted it, and life went
on as usual.
In a few months, however, she again said she would
have to leave. Same thing. She was pregnant. They made
the same offer, she agreed, and they adopted the third
baby. She worked for a week or two, but then said, "I am
definitely leaving this time."
"Don't tell me you're pregnant again?" asked the lady of
the house.
"No," she said, "there are just too many kids here to pick
up after."
