We'll, the time We boys got into
the cooky jar the hardest was once
when mother was away for all dav"
laughed grandfather. beaming indul-
gently at the small boy on the hearth
rug, relates Youths Companion. "She
left the jar full. but we kept going
back to it. until suddenly we touched
bottom. Then Jack proposed that we
make some wooden cookies. and we
went TO work with our lathe and turned
out some beauties. They were pine
you know, and with a little flour dust
ed on them, they looked like the real
article. So we ate the rest of the
cookies, and filled the jar with our
kind"
"But what did your mother saw"
came promptly fpom the hearth-rug.
My mother was great woman.
Douglas. She never said a word, but
every meal for week after that there
was plate of wooden cookies on the
table, and not another one was baked
until we had owned up like men. BAH"
Grandfather broke off suddenly with
wry face. That's not minet" he
exclaimed, snatching from his lips
the cigar he had just lighted
A minute later he had taken from
the decorated jar at his elbow a dozen
cigars of the same cheap brand.
There's just one of mine in the
lot" he declared. Who's been med
dling?"
The grandmother remembered that
she had surprised Huldah, the maid.
giving cigars to a young man the day
before. But she told me she had
bought some herself for his birthday
added grandma. sadly.
"Yes, and so she did scoffed grand
father. And she put them in my
jar and took mine for that fellowi Out,
is she? Well, I'll see her when she
comes in. We won't keep a dishonest
girl in the house-not an hour! I'll
discharge her"
"Grandfather," sounded a voice from
the hearthrug, your mother didn't
discharge you for taking those cook
les"
For full minute grandfather glared
at his small accuser. Then he dropped
back and chuckled weakly.
Presently, when Douglas had run
away, grandfather said: Mother, I'll
let you do the talking to Huldah about
that matter Maybe you can make
her feel it was wrong without discharg-
ing her outright" Then, after pause
with another chuckle-"I believe I
won't tell that cooky story to the chill
dren any more!"
