WHERE IS THE BEEF?

THE NEWLY-MARRIED HUSBAND

CAME HOME FROM THE OFFICE

TO FIND HIS YOUNG WIFE

IN FLOODS OF TEARS.

"DARLING,

WHATEVER IS THE MATTER?"

HE ASKED. 

"SWEETHEART,"

SHE SOBBED,

"THE MOST TERRIBLE

THING HAS HAPPENED!

I COOKED MY VERY FIRST

BEEF BOURGUIGNON FOR YOU

AND I GOT IT OUT OF THE

OVEN TO SEASON IT

AND THE PHONE RANG.

WHEN I CAME BACK FROM

ANSWERING THE PHONE,

I FOUND THAT THE CAT

HAD EATEN IT!" 

"DON'T WORRY, DARLING,"

SAID HER HUSBAND.

"DON'T CRY.

WE CAN GET A NEW

CAT TOMORROW."
