word meant (outside of books) except as he
saw the other boys have 'curreney' that
would buy little things, and large uen have
~''Rreenbacks" that would buy larger thing
than currency" would. They had chickens
and pigs. and Dolly and old Brindle. and
the garden and the wood lot. and the
%neighbors cut the grass "on shares''
and brought their share home
and stacked it in tho yard. The store man
seemed very kind, and gave Perry's mother
everything she asked for without nsking for
money. Perhaps it was because whenever
they killed a hog she always took him the
hams and shoulders as soon as they were
smoked, leaving them the spareribs, head
cheese, sausages, and SO forth. and the
pieces to put in the barrel for the winter
But as long rs he could remember, he never
went to bed Except SUNDAY nights, OF

she hardly stopped that long enough to
eat.
Tho reason why there was SO much alter
ing to be done was becanBe his clothes wore

And of course, Wher u coat or n pair o!

RAM oNN'
TN NOT SMALL OF MY AGE; I'M
A only old OF my sixe." This ID what
4 Perry said and people laughed at. lie
wondered why they laughed at it. and why
they SO often laughed at what he said.
They didn't laugh at what other boys said.
1t wasn't fair to laugh at what he said any
any more than what other boys said.
And then one day, after long thinking III
over, he went. to his mother and. leaning
against her knee, standing on one foot and
kicking the floor with the other, and look
ing down at her apron, which he was oreas-
ing with one hand and smoothing out with
the other, he said:
Mamma, why am / different from~the
other little boys?"
Then another curious thing happened.
Instead of answering him she just kissed
him, hard, and put her arms around hlm
and cried on his neck. Then when she
pulled her apron away to wipe her eyes
with. he said:
Never mind. nanny sweet" CThat
was a pct name he had for herr You can

Il o low r down the clothes came from, the
newer and hanasomer they were.l
At Last there came out Y very good suit OF
army blue. Perry was delighted, only
mammy-sweet cried more than ever; cried
so much that she couldn't get on Wit the
suit. and it seemed IA il it would never DO
done. The coat was the worst part of II.
torn and spotted, and the hardest for
mammy-sweet to get along with.
But ut last thnt, too, was done. the torn

"Aren't you going to wash those offT"

No answer.
"But, mother, the boys'll ask me IL I've
been saving this coat for pig killing time"
No answer.

Then If you'll believe ii, she just straight
ened up and looked sterner than Perry had
ever seen her in his life, and said, calm and
slow:
"Tell them to ask their fathers il they
remember the coat your father was brought
home in"

him better-lots better. If one Of them
had Perry's big mind in his own big body
he might be proud"
And if l had only a little mind in nv
rather little body, wouldn't you love me?"
"Oh. yes. / s'pose 80. But l might not be
as proud of you as 1 am now"
And she smiled through her tears and he
kissed the redness away from her eyes and
nose. '
But after he had gone out and was milk
ing the COW he thought and said aloud to
himself as usual:
But il l had one of those big bodies for
my mind" He didn't finish the sentence,
because he just couldn't. He just took a
long, deep breath, that kind of a breath
that would nave been a yawn if his mouth
had been wide open.
(Since then he has learned that people
call that kind of breaths sighs.)
1t had not been hard for Perry TO learn
to read. He learned his letters because his
mother wanted him to, though he didn't see
the use of it. Then b-a, ba; be. be; b-i,
bi-well, thas seemed to have some sense;
and when he saw that ba, and be, and bi,
made ba-byby, then it seemed TO him as if
q curtain was lifted toward the morning
light. Still the old spelling book-he has
