"I was calling," she said, "on a lady In Denver, and In tho parlor with us woro tho two sons of tho houso, Wllllo nnd Georgo, aged ro-Bpoctlvcly ro-Bpoctlvcly 8 and 5 years. Wllllo was very quiet and good, but Georgo behaved be-haved awfully. Ho broko an ornament; orna-ment; ho fretted nnd cried; ho kicked his mothor; ho cut his finger with a fruit knlfo. Finally my hostess said to him: 'George, why can't you be-havo be-havo yoursolf? Just look at your brothor Wllllo. See what a perfect ltttlo gontloman ho Is. His good conduct con-duct ought to mako you ashamed. Ho a porfoct gentleman, .you a little beast.' Tho good Willie, Bitting upright up-right in his chair, smllod acquiescence to all this pralso. 'George is making a d n fool of himself, Isn't ho?' he remarked complacently." |
