"Say Mogey," Smush said one day as the two pals waited in line for some frozen lemonade, "do you still sleep on that corn husk mattress?"
"Naw," Mogey replied. "That was too itchy for me after a while, so I brought some cinder blocks into my room and was sleeping on those for a spell. But then the blocks made my back ache something awful, so I moved out to the silo a while back and started sleeping on the sacks of grain out there. It's powerful comfortable, especially if I get a mixed sack of half barley and half rye. Why, what do you sleep on?"
"Oh," said Smush. "A bed, mostly. You know, with pillows and a blanket and such."
