JENNIFER’S WEDDING DAY was fast approachin­g, and she was horrified to learn that her mother had bought the exact same dress for the wedding as her father’s young new wife. Jennifer implored her stepmother to exchange hers, but she refused. So Jennifer’s mother agreed to buy a different dress for the wedding.

“Are you going to return the other dress?” Jennifer asked. “You really don’t have another occasion where you could wear it.”

Her mother smiled. “Of course

I do, dear. I’m wearing it to the rehearsal dinner the night before the wedding.”

A PARK RANGER is warning some hikers about bears. “Brown bears are usually harmless,” he says. “They avoid contact with humans, so we

suggest you attach small bells to your backpacks and give the bears time to get out of your way. However, grizzly bears are extremely dangerous. If you see any grizzly-bear droppings, leave the area immediatel­y.”

“How do we know whether they’re grizzly-bear droppings?” asks a hiker.

“Easy,” replies the ranger. “They’re full of small bells.”
