Something Tasty.

A mission worker was much inter.
cstcd tn lad in enc tenement who
was convaleseing from prolonged
illness. On one visit to her small
charge the worker carried with her a
quantity of fine fruit for the lad. but
thas, to the establishment Of the big.
hearted visitor. the father OF the boy
received with a somewhat dubious air
exhibiting absolutely no appreciation
of the Offering.
When next the good Samaritan
came 10 the tenement she naturally
inquired Of the father how the boy
had enjoyed the fruit
'Pretyy we'll" was TIE curt answer
~ presume he ate most Of it."
Eyes, he got away with it all right"
said the parent carelessly, but, miss
tina. boy Is like me. He don't care
fer no daso fruit. He likes something
dainty and tasty--for instance, pigs
feet. New York Press.
