Show Tired of Bossing. When Mary went home to Ireland for a visit to the old farm, after a four years' course in general housework house-work In America, she found a new baby brother. "AncT he" was thol spoiled you couldn't live in the same house with him," recounted Mary to her old mistress. "Such a raisin' as he had had! I towld me mother 'twas different altogether from the bringin' up of us older children. 'Twas do this, an' we done it or get a whippin'. But with the little wan now if she says to him 'do this,' he says, 'No, I don't want to,' an' never a budge does he make. But my mother was not set back by my scoldin'. She just saved, 'Oh, well, wait until you've. lived as long and as much as I have, and you will get tired of bossin', too." |
