Tiring Him Out.
Mamma — " I met young Mr. Nicefellow on the street to-day, and told him frankly that, although he was welcome to come to see you, he should remember that you were young and needed plenty of sleep, and he therefore ought not to stay so late." Nellie — " And what did he say ? " Mamma — " He shocked me awfully by insisting that you kept him from going." Nellie—" 0, the great big story-teller ! I tried my best to tire him out so that he would go home." Mamma — " Tried to tire him out I Why, how?" Nellie — " By sitting on his lap."
