Poor old Herbert had died and his wife put a notice
in the local paper - "Herbert is dead".
The clerk commented, "You can have another seventeen
words for the same price if you want to".
She jumped at the opportunity and made the notice
read - "Herbert is dead. For urgent sale wood lathe,
bandsaw, electric drill, chisels, sandpaper, heaps of
wood, various polishes and scrollsaw".
