man, distractedly, as he paced the
room with the crying infant in his

the young wife, as she took her Off
spring and tried to soothe him; what
ever shall we dog"
They were very young and it was
their first baby, and really if things
had gone on for another hour as they
had during the last, it is an open
question which would have gone into
commissions first, father, mother or
baby.

fellow at last; shell know what to

the good old mother with him, almost

with apprehension. Putting on her
spectncles. she regarded the infant
critically for a moment, and then said,
