XIV THAT DECEITFUL JUG
UNCLE REMUS was in good humor one evening recently when he dropped casually into the editorial room of ;The Constitution�察─�as has been his custom for the past year or two。 He had a bag slung across his shoulder�察�and in the bag was a jug。 The presence of this humble but useful vessel in Uncle Remus's bag was made the occasion for several suggestive jokes at his expense by the members of the staff�察�but the old man's good humor was proof against all insinuations。
;Dat ar jug's bin ter wab�察�mon。 Hit's wunner deze yer ole timers。 I got dat jug down dar in Putmon County w'en Mars 'Lisha Ferryman wuz a young man�察�an' now he's done growed up�察�an' got ole an' died�察�an' his chilluns is growed up an' dey kin count dere gran'chilluns�察�an' yit dar's dat jug des ez lively an' ez lierbul fer ter kick up devilment ez w'at she wuz w'en she come fum de foundry。;
;That's the trouble�察─�said one of the young men。 ;That's the reason we'd like to know what's in it now。
;Now youer gittin' on ma'shy groun'�察─�replied Uncle Remus。 ;Dat's de p'int。 Dat's w'at make me say w'at I duz。 I bin knowin' dat jug now gwine on sixty´fl' year�察�an' de jug w'at's more seetful dan dat jug ain't on de topside er de worrul。 Dar she sets�察─�continued the old man�察�gazing at it reflectively�察 �dar she sets dez ez natchul ez er ambertype�察�an' yit whar's de man w'at kin tell w'at kinder confab she's a gwineter carry on w'en dat corn´cob is snatched outen 'er mouf�拭�Dat jug is mighty seefful�察�mon。;
;Well�察�it don't deceive any of us up here�察─�remarked the agricultural editor�察�dryly。 ;We've seen jugs before。;
;I boun' you is�察�boss�察�I boun' you is。 But you ain't seed no seetful jug like dat。 Dar she sets a bellyin' out an' lookin' mighty fat an' full�察�an' yit she'd set dar a bellyin' out ef dere wuzent nuthin' but win' under dat stopper。 You knows dat she ain't got no aigs in her�察�ner no bacon�察�ner no grits�察�ncr no termartusses�察�ner no shellotes�察�an' dat's 'bout all you duz know。 Dog my cats ef de seetfulness er dat jug don't git away wid me�察�coutmued Uncle Remus�察�with a chuckle。 ;I wuz comm' 'cross de bridge des now�察�an' Brer John Henry seed me wid de bag slung onter my back�察�an' de jug in it�察�an' he ups an' sez�察�sezee��
Heyo�察�Brer Remus�察�ain't it gittin' late for watermillions��'
;Hit wuz de seeffulness er dat jug。 If Brer John Henry know'd de color er dat watermillion�察�I speck he'd snatch me up 'fo' de confunce。 I 'clar' ter grashus ef dat jug ain't a caution� �
;I suppose it's full of molasses now�察─�remarked one of the young men�察�sarcastically。
;Hear dat� ─�exclaimed Uncle Remus�察�triumphantly ´'hear dat� �W'at I tell you�拭�I sed dat jug wuz seetful�察�an' I sticks to it。 I bin knowin' dat´;
;What has it got in it�拭─�broke in some one�察 �molasses�察�kerosene�察�or train´oil�拭�
;Well�察�I lay she's loaded�察�boss。 I ain't shuk her up sence I drapt in�察�but I lay she's loaded。;
;Yes�察─�said the agricultural editor�察 �and it's the meanest bug´juice in town´regular sorghum skimmings。;
;Dat's needer yer ner dar�察─�responded Uncle Remus。 ;Po' fokes better be fixin' up for Chrismus now w'ile rashuns is cheap。 Dat's me。 W'en I year Miss Sally gwine 'bout de house w'isslin' 'W'en I k'n Read my Titles Cier'´an' w'en I see de martins swawmin' atter sundown´an' w'en I year de peckerwoods confabbin' togedder dese moonshiny nights in my een er town´en I knows de hot wedder's a breakin' up�察�an' I know it's 'bout time fer po' fokes fer ter be rastlin' 'roun' and huntin' up dere rashuns。 Dat's me�察�up an down。;
;Well�察�we are satisfied。 Better go and hire a hall�察─�remarked the sporting editor�察�with a yawn。 ;If you are engaged in a talking match you have won the money。 Blanket him somebody�察�and take him to the stable。;
;An' w'at's mo'�察─�continued the old man�察�scorning to notice the insinuation�察 �dough I year Miss Sally w'isslin'�察�an' de peckerwoods a chatterin'�察�I ain't seein' none er deze yer loafin' niggers fixin' up fer ter 'migrate。 Dey kin holler Kansas all 'roun' de naberhood�察�but ceppin' a man come 'long an' spell it wid greenbacks�察�he don't ketch none er deze yer town niggers。 You year me�察�dey ain't gwine。;
;Stand him up on the table�察─�said the Sporting editor�察 �give him room。;
;Better go down yer ter de calaboose�察�an' git some news fer ter print�察─�said Uncle Remus�察�with a touch of irony in his tone。 ;Some new nigger mighter broke inter jail。;
;You say the darkeys are not going to emigrate this year�拭─�inquired the agricultural editor�察�who is interested in these things。
;Shoo� �dat dey ain't� �I done seed an' I knows。;
;Well�察�how do you know�拭�
