The father was telling a story at the dinner table of a fight between two men in which he had interfered. One had swung a shovel aloft, shouting at the other man, "I'll knock your brains out!"
"It was at this moment," the head of the family explained, "that I
stepped in between them."
Little Johnnie had been listening, round-eyed with excitement. Then, he
burst forth with the following statement:
"I guess he couldn't knock any brains out of you, could he, pop?"
