TRUTHFUL TOMMY.
"Tommy, how did you get all thtf back of your neck sunburnt?" "Pullin' weeds in the garden." "But your hair is all wet, my son." "That's perspiration." "Your vest is wrong side out, too.*'
"Put on that way on purpose." "And how does it happen, Tommy, dear," that you, 'have got Jack Howard's trousers op?"
Tommy (after a long pause)—? Mother, I cannot tell a lie! I've been' a-swimmin'!
