VIGOROUSLY ASSAULTED.
The Girls Mother Failed to Recognize
the Fellow.
Two Stories OF Prec0cious Children Together
With Big Lie.

Last Friday night an innocent party
was vigorously assaulted upon the
front stoop of Waterville domicile. SO
the story goes. A pretty girl lives in
the domicile and he has known her to
bow to for some time. Early Friday
evening he met her on the street and
the stoop and talked and finally the
young woman asked him to have some
plums. A peck basket filled with the
fruit stood on the top step. Over the
top of the basket was a tin pan as a
cover. In moving the pan the young
man dropped it and it rolled down the
stoop with more or less noise. The
young man was bending over the
plums picking out nice ones
when suddenly his new fall derby was
damned violently over his. ears and he
heard woman Shrek: There, you
thief, how do You like that?''
The young man got another bang
over the hat and eluded a third by
jumping to the sidewalk. He looked
up and saw a woman violently flour
ishing cane in the doorway. The
pretty girl was jumping mad4y about
the woman and taken altogether it was
decidedly chaotic scene. Explana-
tfons finally We're brought about. The
woman was the girls mother. She
heard the pan fall down the stoop and
peeping out saw, as she supposed, a
sat on the other side of the stoop and
was not visible from the doorway
Filled with rage mamma selected a big
cane from the hall rack, opened the
door gently and damned it to the thief
with terrible satisfaction. Before he
could get in word she landed two
more swings on him, taking chunks out
of his new headgear each time. She
apologized sweetly afterward, but the
young man went home early
"One of my friends has a precocious
youth about six years old, who fire.
quently. l am told, figures with his
mother in some amusing situations re-
marked business man, yesterday
1.-The last story I heard was about
little conversation between the mother
and boy which took place the other
evening at bedtime. My friends wife
and heir had been away all afternoon
The boy behaved splendidly during the
outing and when his mother was maxi
ing him ready for bed she commended
him highly Finally the 'nightie' had
been put on and the little fellow knelt
at his mothers knee to say his eve
ming prayer. All went smoothly until
he finished the sentence God bless
- and make him a good boy when
the youngster looked up roguishly and
said. But it wasn't at all necessary
FOR me to say that, was it, mamma ? |
You say am a good boy The young
mother was non-plussed for a moment, |
but recovered herself sufficiently to |
explain that that days good behavior
was an answer to the prayer which the
little lips uttered the night before. and
that the prayer should be repeated to
ensure good behavior on the following
day. The lad thought a moment and
soailoquized, I guess that's So With
the hope that the little head had alb
sorbed a valuable lesson, the mother
tucked him away for the night"
But that story does not compare
