mamma was puzzled to know what to
do with him.
+" think, she said, after what
long time to Frotty, who was waiting
anxiously to know his punishment, II
think my little boy must 60 right back
to Aunt Rachel. Here comes papa, he
will take you.n
"Ohr' cried Trotty, in dismay, 81
don't want to. You punish me your
self, mamma, harder'n everything"
But mamma was firm. Trotty had
disobeyed Aunt Rachel, and to her he
must 90, confess and submit to what
ever punishment she decreed.
1t was almost dark when Aunt Rachel
found herself at liberty to return home.
She looked anxiously all the way up the
street, but no Trotty was to be seen any
where, and her observant eyes took IN
the fact that the snow man was just
where she left it; Trotty having evil
IDENTIFY abandoned it Immediately. Then
she went into the house; all was still and
dark.
"Trottyr' she called.
No answer What had happened to
him! But the instant she lighted lamp
she discovered what had taken place.
"Did | ever in all my lifer' she ex-
claimed, Indignantly, as she surveyed
the ruins. "Of all things in the world,
deliver me from boyr'
Presently she began to wonder where
the child was, and she left things as
they were to search for him. But no
Trotty was to be found anywhere. w
"Dear me-" she exclaimed, really
worried now. "What if he has start
ed home and got lost. l declare / be-
lieye I'd forgive him dozen times over
to know he was safe"
Just then the door opened, and there
stood somebody of about Trotty's size.
For minute or two he stood hesitat-
ing, with downcast eyes; then, very
cautiously, he hazarded glance up
into Aunt RachePs face, and then
why, he burst into tears! "Pm-sor-
rier'n anything" he sobbed; "please
forgive me.''
He looked so pitiful, so frightened, so
"sorrier than anything" that Aunt
Rachel took him up in her arms and
kissed away the tears, kindly assuring
him he was forgiven.
Il don't see what makes me do so
many naughty things" said Trotty to
his mother, as she tucked him into bed
that night. 81 mean to be real good,
and then something comes into my
mind, and l does it before l tinks,
sometimes and sometimes / does fink,
only don't hard enough, ! guess. /

The other day one of West6eld's
young lawyers had case on trial be-
fore the local court, and the testimony
of the opposition being rather uninter-
esting and monotonous he let his
thoughts ramble to pleasanter themes.
AT any rate that is fair supposition,

with the witness and the voice of the
Judge spoke the lawyers name, he
opened his half-closed eyes with a sud-
den start and calculated, "What did
you say, dearP" The Court and wit
nesses roared, the young limb of the
law looked confused, and the jolly Judge
remarked that it was not good taste to
get the different kinds of courting mixed
up, though each was good in its place.
