little sitting room-leading from her
own room-fitted up for bedroom for
the coming grandson. But all that
forenoon both grandpapa and grand
mamma sighed occasionally, for they
feared that the peace and quiet of
their home would be disturbed by
wild and noisy boy about the house.
They both loved their daughter NelPs
little ones dearly, but they felt that
they were too old to have the re-
sponsibility of a child, especially If
that child were peevish and noisy.
At noon the old couple met Neddie at
the railroad station, and when a fine
little lad, with smiling face and dane
ing eyes stepped to the platform from
the coach neither grandmamma nor
grandpapa knew him to be their grand
son. But Neddie recognized the old
folks and ran to them. Hello, grams,"
he cried, gayly Then both his arms
were about their old necks, and he
gave them each resounding kiss.
Gee, but I'm glad to get here,
grammal" he said, standing off and
looking his grandmother over. I'm
that hungry, gramma," he continued,
that 1 could eat raw corn stewed."
Then he laughed so gayly that both
grandmamma and grandpapa Joined in
the merriment. "You are fine fellow,
Neddie." declared grandpapa. Then he
called a cab, and the three got into
it and drove rapidly homeward. On the
way Neddie kept the old folks in an
uproar of laughter, for he told so many
funny anecdotes about his two-day trip

just love apple pudding and hard
sauce. And. say, gramma, may have
a second helping of hard sauce? 1t
won't hurt me, honest injun." And
Neddie jumped from his chair to hug
gramma into giving her consent to his
having just whatever he wanted for
dinner.
And so the day wore away, as did the
other days of the week. and grand
mamma and grandpapa had no COM
plant to make against Neddie, whom
they now called Little Lad Laughter"
for he was laughing all the time. And
each day the old folks were sorry to
see the time of Neddie's stay shorten
ing, for instead of bringing disturbance
and trouble into their home he had
brought sunshine and happiness.
The night before Neddies departure

said to grandpapa: Father, 1t has
made me so happy to have child in
the house again. l wish Nell would let
us keep Neddie all the time. He's so
sunny and so good. Why, I had no
idea he'd be such splendid little
companion, such a darling
81 guess it was the whooping cough
and mumps that made him so peevish
when we were at NelIs so long ago."
said grandpapa. 1--WE should have had
enough sense to know that a child so
afflicted could not be in good temper
all the time. We were in fault, mother,
and wronged our Little BAD Laughter.
My, oh, but he is a fine boy, and the
apple of my eye!"
"And of mine, too, father" sighed
grandmamma in tender tones.

At the luncheon table Neddie was

mamma and grandpapa were almost
afraid to feel glad over his behavior.
for ne might change at any moment,
they thought. But somehow they felt
glad he had come, for he had grown so
tall and fine, and had such a frank,
open. lovable little face. And how
sunny he seemed, too.
That evening at dinner Neddie was
just the same, or even happier, for he
had been out over the old town with
grandpapa all afternoon. and was so
full of questions at table that grand
papa laughingly told him he'd get so
full of information that he'd have no
room for his dinner, which was apple
pudding with hard sauce.

NEDDlE'S VISIT

"Well mother, here's bad news for
you" 1t was Grandpapa Smith who
spoke to his good wife, Grandmamma
Smith. The two old folks were seated
at the breakfast table, finishing the
morning meal. Grandpapa had just
received a letter which he was looking
through.
bad news, father!" and Grand
mamma Smith put down her coffee cup
and looked anxious.
''Yes, this is a letter from Daughter
Nell and she says she's going to send
Neddie to us to spend Easter week.
He's probably on his way here now.
She says she'll wire us on the day he
is to arrive"
But, father, I don't see any bad
news about that" said grandmamma.
Explain yourself. You really fright
ened me, for feared Nell--or one of
her children-might be sick"
'Well, mother, we're too old to have
little folks around. We are used to our
rest, and a child-no matter how deeply
we love him-will be a bother to us.
Now, I love Neddie as well as though
he were my son instead of my grand
son, but, nevertheless, he'll be in the
way here in this house where only two

entertain him."
Eyes, 1 guess you are right, father" ="
agreed grandmamma. But we'll do
our best to make Neddie have pleas
ant time. But If the dear child is as
peevish and cross as he was when we
last saw him-well-" and grand
mother sighed. "We'll have our hands
full, and that is certain. But-he's
overlook any naughtiness or crossness
on his part. Well humor him, l dare
say. and make him even more unman-
ageable. He used to be such a trial
to Nell"
Lets see! How long ago was that?'
asked grandpapa.
"Why, it's four years ago." said
grandmamma. "Just think of 1t, IA
ther, four years since we have seen
Nell and her children. 1 hadn't thought
of it's being that long, had your"
mo, the time has flown since we
were out west visiting our dear Nell
and her little family. But how old
must Neddie be by now, mother?"
Grandmamma thought minute,
"e's about now, 1 reckon" she ex-
planned. Lets see-he'll be this
spring-in April some time. oh, he'll
be a big fellow. And 1 do hope he's
got over his crossness."
"But we must remember Neddie had
whooping cough and mumps that sum-
mer we visited them" said grandpapa-
THAT may have made him a bit more
peevish."
Just then the door bell rang and
grandmamma went to the door to find
a messenger boy there with telegram
for her. Opening it she called out to
grandpapa; "Neddie will be here on
the noon train"
Then all was hurry and hustle, for a
room for the child must be got ready
And as the spare room was a long way

With the first nice sunslliny day Of
spring, the world looks bright and the
birds all sing; the air is laden with
sweet perfume and the hearts of the
people are singing in tune. It's the
season of promise, and beauty, and

when you were a boy; you played
'"hooky" from school and spent the
hours flshin' or stretched out on the
grass, just dreamin', or wishin'. Here;
wake up, old man; you wouldn't ex-
change your present good home for

get your wife's request-to get her
