Feeling weak and pale.

Down a pint of ale!

l have something for you.

Look for it!

Cold...

Warmer!

Hot!

With my patent needle
threader

l shall never miss
the smallest eye!

Good piggy...

Don't be scared, Louie...

you'll make a lovely pair
of hams!

Now the heart.

,
There's sufficient malt

we even sell it.

The barley is mealy

and five crowns cheaper

than last year.

Mind you economise.

Order is the main thing.

And decency.

Here we leave the malt
to mellow.

Well, Doctor.

l can smell pork!

We stocked up well on ice
in season.

But this is May,

too warm to stick a pig!

It broke its leg.

As manager you must try
your best.

As the board of directors -

we could give you the sack.

Pepper, salt...

Marjoram...

Thyme...

Ginger...

No, this is no cake.

We replaced
the boiling sieves.

If our beer's so good,

why not produce more.

Right,
we'll boil a lot overnight.

You'll smoke
conserve the meat.

What my wife doesn't eat

goes into the ice-box.

,
The beer is mellow

particularly the lager.

l shall deliver it to pubs

with large cold cellars,

so that our beer

wins a good reputation.

Mind you,

our beer always had a good
reputation!

Before the new brewer came

all it was good for

was against constipation.

We need
two more fermentation tubs

to increase
our beer production.

That's enough,

we'll finish
in the board-room.

l also propose

increasing
the barrel manufacture..

Where were you, Martin.

Stay here and stoke up!

Now the sausages.

,
Whatever the beer's like

l insist on order.

And decency!

,
Leave the coal as it is

so people can see
se can afford it.

You must try harder!

What a fragrance!

Help yourselves!

May l invite the gentlemen

to a pork-feast.

We could finish
our meeting tomorrow.

An angel's flown by!

My, I'm fair bloated!

The amount I've put away!

A full plate of soup.

A fairy-tale meal!

Five sausages,

more meat...

and a cold sausage on top.

l bow to your culinary
expertise.

A beautiful, relaxed afternoon.

But l have two women
in labour

and one with
a gall-bladder attack.

You must try harder.

You must do your best!

They're all drones.

l have something for you.

What is it.

Our chest expander

will strengthen you muscles.

You too will be strong
as a tiger.

Our chest expander

for the whole family.

l fell asleep
with the rosy image

of two steaks for breakfast.

All Francin ever has

is lukewarm coffee

and a slice of dry bread.

Francin's muscles
are as magnificent

as the gladiator's

on the chest-expander lid,

but the poor man
sees himself

as a skinned rabbit.

What happened.

Peppin.

My brother-in-law, at last!

l was apprenticed
as shop-assistant,

dreamt of attending
business-school.

Peppin is a cobbler,

but all he ever did
was shout.

l sent home money

so he wouldn't come here

and shout the place down.

Who are you woman.

Sister-in-law.

Welcome, brother-in-law!

I've come to stay
for two weeks

and you're out flat!

Help yourself!

I've lost my appetite,

been feeling poorly.

They all send
their greetings

except for Bochalena,

She's had it for good,

some trickster slipped
some gunpowder

into a log,

the old with stoked up
her fire

and it blew her up.

How's your wife.

Fancy-free, that's me.

The priest broke
his hip-bone,

uncle Zavicak was tiling
the church spire

,
and crashed down

but straight into,
the linden-tree

so nothing happened to him

and the priest ran,down
to bless him

missed his footings

and off he went to hospital.

Isn't this something.

I'll mend all your shoes
for you.

I'm a professionalist!

This is the Parisian style,

this here the instep.

This is the heel, see.

If you want
to practice cobbling,

you've got to have a diploma.

I'll teach you all l know

in the two weeks I'm staying.

Two weeks.

Two years...

Most likely a life sentence.

I'm making apple strudel!

Your sausages are damn good,

pity I'm feeling so poorly.

l made shoes for a guy

who was
''Shoemaker to the Court''

and he delivered his ware...

By bike.

Bullshit.

Had the Emperor seen him
on a bike

he'd have taken away...

That bike.

Oh, balls!

The title with the eagle!

As you see,
we are highly active.

We have improved the quality

by using first-class
raw-materials.

l use my motorcycle

to drive round inns

and gather new contracts.

...his little girl

kept hitting her head

so he padded all the corners

but then he opened the door

with such force

he hit her himself.

SO he padded

his little girl's
forehead instead.

Uncle Method read an advert:

Are you bored.

Buy a racoon!

So he ordered one.

,
Like a kid it was

had to look into everything,

looked into Uncle's clock

and his three pocket-watches

and they're a gonner.

l wrote up these...

But when uncle kissed aunt

the racoon wanted some too!

We could have them printed,

l'd take them round the inns

on my business trips

by Laurin Klement
motorcycle.

Day by day your thirst renew

with our ale
we freshly brew.

Who's that yelling.

My brother's on a visit.

Go and tell him

to stop it.

This is our brewery!

Tell him to do his hollering

out in the fields!

...the racoon got bored,

and mucked up all
the bedding.

Uncle Method wrote an advert:

Are you bored.

Buy a racoon.

Why are you two shouting.

,
It's not me

it's somebody inside me.

For mercy's sake, stop.

You endanger my position.

Want me to go back
to accounting.

You should be
with the police,

you're so clever!

No fear.

Uncle Adolf was a cop,

one day he chase a guy.

The guy jumped out
of the window

into a cesspool.

Please continue.

The hop-growers
are competitive.

Driving
my Laurin Klement cycle

l could interview
them personally.

They wouldn't let him

ride in the police car,

he stank to high heave,

he took the suit
to the cleaner's...

We shall resume the meeting
in half an hour.

Ask the accountant

for a basin of warm water.

You've turned our meeting

into a Charlie Chaplin act

starring Lupino Lane!

...she screamed at him:

You've shit your trousers

so wash them yourself!

What is this muck.

The best glue in the world,

made in Vienna.

Thanks a lot, brother.

Uncle Adolf was unlucky.

One day he got drunk

with a couple of dentists

and they pulled out

each other's front teeth.

Uncle Adolf's too.

How unlucky.

What if they had been

vets who castrate bulls!

So he was lucky.

An insurance clerk

had his son's school-fees
to pay.

Soon came complaints,

people weren't getting
their sick-pay.

The insurance guy
had pocketed it.

So he took his scythe,

drank a bottle of rum

and cut his throat.

These days life is easier.

Husbands and wives

take turns hanging
themselves

like the cobbler who
thieved at night,

his wife
couldn't steal at all

so he hanged himself
for shame.

Gone is all our love

enough to make you weep

nothing left at all

all drowned in the deep...

Depends if it's real
passion, though.

One woman
has twelve children

and the other nothing -

even were she to bed
a brewery chimney.

I'm going to sing!

What will you have
for breakfast.

Tea, coffee, milk, or beer.

Rum!

Every woman
has a tendency to evil.

God morning.

What were we talking about.

Women.

Woman is the only good

we have in he world.

FASHlONABLE COlFFURES

Come back tomorrow.

We can't have this!

The beer is tepid,

the pipes unwashed,

not to mention the glasses.

We shall not renew
the contract.

Look at this beauty!

See this froth.

It isn't froth
but whipped cream!

It isn't cream, it's...

It's not cold enough.

Azure, the colour of summer.

Ah, the scent of camomile

This fountain

and that lady's hair

are the pride of our town.

How dare you.

Not cool enough,
lm telling you.

This is our hotel.

We are the Board
of Directors.

Good morning, gentlemen!

Hello, dear.

When will you be home.

l don't know.

Permit me to drink
to the beauty of your hair!

To your culinary art!

Dear lady, have one with us!

Your Health!

Good.

But not cold enough.

Good-bye.

We'll make you
a lovable creature

with a golden collar round
your neck,

they'll be wild
to see you dance...

Just perfect!

My heart is a beehive

abuzz with pretty girls...

What can l do.

Nothing.

Wait till l run out of gas.

l've brought you something.

Look for it!

Cold...

Beautiful...

What is it for.

Put the light out.

Now Peppin can scream
blue murder.

These sparks give new joy,
new life.

This purple ozone

will take away your longing

to do in public

the things other people

hardly dare think about.

Well, here l am!

Shut the door!

This is good for
your nerves.

We shall do it every day.

We shall do it every night.

Nifty!

Like a peep-show
on sexual hygiene!

l bet you are hungry.

My boss had a daughter, Mary

A belly like a chamber-pot,

bust like Maria Theressa.

One night they said to me:

You're sleeping here.

Come morning Mary touched me

and put those tits
on my chest

and l jumped up

and split my head open

on the stove.

The family jumped
off their beds

happy there'd be a wedding.

,
l wouldn't have it

pretended to be weak
in the chest.

She married a guy
called Jetrutka.

,
A drunkard he was

every time he sneezed

he got Mary pregnant.

Right foot forwards,

shoulders back.

This is the barrel.

Beer barrel.

You're soft in the head.

lf you said that
to the Captain

he'd hit you with his sword.

Attention!

For offending
the greatest army -

the Austrian!

What are you yelling
about now.

We're playing at soldiers.

Meaning drill.

play at what you like,

but not here.

Where are we to play.

On top of the chimney
for all l care.

But quietly!

The chimney.

The chimney.

Frayed nerves he has.

Should splash his private
parts with warm water.

After you.

The chimney, he said.

This would make
a great command-post!

Or outlook tower.

Bullshit!

,
That's for civilians

a command post's
for soldiers.

intelligent beauty though
you are,

if the Captain heard you

he'd hit you with his sword
and shout:

l'll hack your cock off!

But he wouldn't hack
my cock off,

,
he liked me

l carried his sword.

l was his best soldier.

ls it true that in the army

you grazed goats.

Who said that.

The tobacconist.

He was a Captain in the war

and watched you
through binoculars.

Tobacconists couldn't
be Captains,

the Emperor wouldn't have it

A wounded soldier became
a tobacconist

but a tobacconist couldn't
become a Captain.

Forwards, men!

Are you dizzy.

Horribly dizzy!

,
In the name of the law

climb down.

After you.

l'll go down inside,
as drill.

Are you bored.

Buy a racoon.

You deserve a spanking.

On my bare bottom.

On your bare bottom.

lt must have been wonderful
up there.

Yes, it was dangerous,

what's dangerous is great.

Austrian soldier triumphs
again.

ls that your brother,
the shouter.

That's me.

What's his trade.

Cobbler and brewery worker.

Give him a job.

For shouters work
is the best antidote.

The operation is over.

Drive off!

We are a voluntary fire
brigade,

not an American comedy

with Lupino Lane.

We shall send you the bill!

lt must have been wonderful
up there!

His nerves are
damned frayed...

The music will
revive your vital organism.

When l did this,
with Miss Asta

the dragoons screamed
for more brandy!

My foot!

We must call the Doctor.

What a disaster.

What have you been up
to now.

lf she doesn't stay in bed

she'll be on crutches
for life

in a wheelchair.

Can you forgive me.

You were sent to me
by heaven.

What else does
in the fodder.

Crush the potatoes
with bran.

l must take your
temperature,

you coughed last night.

38.6 - that's a fever.

A cold compress,
so your lungs

don't get stuck
to your pleura.

That could mean pneumonia.

Now he can hope

to have me in a wheelchair.

He'd be the happiest
of husbands.

Now he has me
where he wants me

immobile and helpless.

Do you have a minute.

Of course, you're an invalid

Go down to the cellar

and turn the pieces of meat

curing in the brine.

You know l have a horror
of meat.

You'd have me
in a wheelchair

remember lm an invalid.

l'll go at once, my love.

Ugh, garlic.

l have something for you.

What.

Shut your eyes!

Yes.

Are they shut.

You won't peep.

No.

Now.

Now.

lt's beautiful!

Like it.

Yes.

Who bought it for you.

Francin.

And who is that.

You.

And who am l.

l am your....

My hubby.

What more could l wish for.

,
l feel fine

my wife's an invalid

and brother Peppin
has stopped shouting.

Who says lm losing
my voice.

Are the canals clean.

Peppin will go
and clean them

there he can be,low
as he likes

,
but not in German

all our board-members
are patriots.

Why not be happy

if God gives us health...

Miss Pauline stood up

but they would hardly
have kissed

had the good lady

not given them a push.

Martin felt
the electric shock

of the girl's breasts
against his chest.

Well, Here l am.

We're overjoyed.

Old Bochalena had a vision

that a horse
with burning mane

flew over our town.

She said: this means war.

And war it was.

And last year

the child Jesus flew

above the town square.

You see little Lolan grazed
his sheep

and an aeroplane flew past,

dragging a rope

which twisted round
Lolan's foot

and Lolan
pretty child that h' e was,

platinum hair and all,

was up there in the sky

and then got caught

in that old linden tree
by the church

and as he fell he asked:

Where is my flock.

The women begged him
to bless them...

Her mother went into
the kitchen

to allow the young people

a tender farewell.

Excuse me, a cold.

These night-time
confinements.

l shall listen to your
Iungs.

Breathe deeply.

Those who drink, die.

But who drinks
our lager won't

want to die!

A common cold, that's all.

Three pills a day.

God bless.

My husband bought me

a therapeutic fulguration
apparatus.

There's a cathode, e pipe
for colds

eucalyptus oil,
fragrant pine-wood...

l'd sure like to see

this box of tricks!

l shall place
the ozone inhaler

in your nose,

but you must lie down.

Do you feel the neon rays.

How poetic.

Ozone -
the scent of summer storms.

Blue is your colour,
mine too.

Yes, and fragrant pinewood.

What are you doing.

Where is this oil

with the pine-wood
fragrance.

Damn you woman,

should be diluted 1:10!

Can you forgive me.

Were l not
the brewery chairman,

l would wish to be
the manager.

lt was a poetic afternoon.

As rehabilitation

l recommend cycling.

New times are here.

Everything is short,

l've cropped
my stallion's tail.

You've cut it!

And l trimmed my moustache.

Beautiful!

This invention

shortens distances
between people.

ln a year or two
this invention

will be in very family.

People will listen
to the news

not only from Prague,

even from Brno

or - not wanting
to exaggerate -

from as far as Paris!

Shorten them!

Great
we'll shorten everything!

Time, distance.

We'll make short work of it

We'll cut it all short -

it's shearing time!

lm afraid this apparatus

will not bring people
happiness.

What we mustn't cut short

is our common sense.

Lucky somebody's got some!

Mustn't cut people's rights
though!

Don't talk that way,

or they'll give you
the sack!

They can't -
because of our organisation.

We hereby cut ourselves off

from old Austria.

You have a motor-cycle

,
of Czech make

now we bought a Czech truck

Horses belong to the past.

This truck replaces
two pairs of horses

and will speed up
deliveries.

Our horses will be off
to the slaughter-house.

Our truck will shorten
the distance

to village inns.

Like a death in the family.

Take three days off.

Cut it off!

Like this.

No!

,
l want it short

like Josephine Baker's

No!

Now some proposals

for further improvements.

Gentlemen!

We shall shorten
the distance

to the cellars.

We are shortening
the working-day.

And cutting your pay
accordingly.

Now.

Now.

You're a magician!

l feel so light!

They've cut off the tails

of three dogs!

She's shorten her hair!

And cut her skirt!

A woman's bare knee

is a Temple
of the Holy Ghost.

The brewery is prospering,
but...

lt costs a lot of money.

These newfangled
improvements.

Any goulash going.

Mind we don't replace you!

My wife complained

you didn't recognise her.

Good afternoon.

Where is your hair.

Here.

My tyres don't need pumping.

The pump works.

l bought this pump

at Runka's Store.

Now we'll begin a new life.

Yes.

l think we'll give you

another chance.

l have something for you.

Look for it!

Cold...

Warmer...

Hot!

Here - lm carrying

a budding author for you!
