Willie and His whistle.

Two small boys were playing choo-
choo in back yard in Chicago the
other day when one of them swallowed
his whistle. 1t was very little one for
a cent, but he missed it just the same,
and meant to have it back. So he be-
gan to cough very hard.
Where's 90 whistle r. asked Willie's
playmate.
81 thollowed it, said Willie, and as
he took long breath the whistle, away
down in his throat, gave a long toot.
Willie and the other boy laughed. 1t
was SO funny to be able to blow a whis-
tie without trying So Willie ran about
footing, until his mother, who hap
pened out, asked what all the fun was
about. When she learned that he had
swallowed his whistle, she did not seem
to think it so much fun, for she hurried
him off to the doctor, who thrust long
wire down his throat and pulled the
whistle out And now, when Willie
wants to toot on his whistle, he has to
blow it.
