notified the farmer that one William

When he took his seat at the breakfast
table and really got action on the fam.

stared. 1t was evident that William had
missed several meals before he arrived

The farmers wife cooked more food
and placed il before him. His dinner
disappeared with the same rapidity as
had his breakfast. But when he had
finished he made no motion to leave the
table
Probably you could eat your supper
now. also, said the farmer, whose
amazement had given place TO wrath.
"I'm sure of IL i" answered William
and he waited contentedly until the
farmers wife cooked and set before him
his supper. When this, likewise, was
