er had given him an apple. He went
to rummaging in the stand drawer, and
found an old razor. This he pressed
into service and began to peel his ap-
pie with it. During the pairing pro-
cess the razor slipped through the ap-
Pile and chopped the end of Peters
thumb off.
In spite of all these little set backs,
the lively boy was able to be around the
house on Friday. His mother left a
kettle of boiling water standing on the
kitchen hearth. During the tempo
rary absence of Mrs. Moore, Peter found
recreation in jumping to and fro over
the steaming pot He had succeeded
in clearing it several times when he
struck the kettle with one foot AMI it
was upset. The boiling water poured
over Peters bare feet and scalded them
so the skin peeled off. He was put to
bed again.
Friday night it rained hard all night.
The roof leaked over Peters bed, and
water got in over the plaster on the
ceiling. The dampness loosened the
plaster from the lath, and Saturday
forenoon a piece as big as the bed
tumbled down on Peter. When they
dug the yelling youngster out from
under the debris, he was pretty
thoroughly barked and bruised.
His mother sent for an aunt of
Peters on Saturday afternoon, and
she has been keeping constant watch
over him ever since, and the past week
has accordingly been dull and I'M
eventful for him
