pieces; but in reaching under a chair

The grocer's boy, in his old automo-

Brunny's arm with his handkerchief,
and then drove the two to DR.. Bruins

The doctor looked grave when he
saw Brunny's arm. I'LL have to put
in some Stitches" he said.
Brunny was very brave as the doctor
dressed the wound, but it hurt dread
fully. He had just finished when Mrs.
Bear hurried In.
"I'm sorry I disobeyed, mother" said
Brunny. after he had told her of the
accident. you may whip me-"
But she shook her head. you've

never again play with glass;"
And Brunny found later that the
doctor had told the truth.
