ONE WAY AT A TIME.
Seven-year-old William had become the proud owner of a pet pig, and insisted upon having all the care of it himself. After a few weeks, as the pig did not seem to thrive, his father said to him:
“William, I’m afraid you are not feeding your pig enough. It does not seem to be fattening at all.”
“I dqn’t want him to fatten yet,” William replied knowingly. “I’m waiting until he gets to be as long as I want him, then I’ll begin to widen him out.”
