After all, il is not easy to be sympa-
[hCtica!ly interested in boy t, whom
you have explained fifty times that two
ana two cant make five, ami then to have
Min say, for the titty-tirst time, that it
does; or, if lie catches the warning shake
Of your aching head, rs he is droning out
I'll" to have him droop, in his dull
way, and say: Il DIN know Then,
900, when his clothes are SO dirty that
persons with delicate stomachs turn away
from him With a sbuddering Ugh" how
can one think of him. Tom Dolan and
ais like, all over the world, rs any por-
zion of those the Master meant when he

One might think of cur, or whelp, or
brute; but never lamb.
S. lis not to be wondered at that Miss
Wilton, the teacher, did not love Tom :;
specially as, studying being thing ut
terls beyond his comprehension, and
playing something he did measurably
understand, he was troublesome boy.

idea what you mean when you say
study" aad yet has very definite idea
