THE REAL THING.
The father who was taking his small son with him in the train forbade him putting his head out of the window. .
'•'The wind will blow off your hat," he explained, at the same time snatching, the boy's hat and hiding it behind Ins back.
The boy was much distressed over losing his hat, so his father said, "Now, watch, and I'll whistle it back again," as he spoke putting the hat back on the boy's head.
A minute later the boy whisked his father's hat off and hurled it out of the window, crying gleefully: "Whistle it back, papa."
