Well, after every little duffer at
tbe table had raised the mercury
of his eating apparatus up to about
105 degrees, Perry T. f yletis got
up and told what he knew about
King
Edward’s coronation. I
thought the toast was very good
and near twelve o’clock that night
I got up and told Ma what I knew
about cramps.
“ I think it was a preponderance
or those peanuts on the half shell
which we had for dessert,” I told
Ma as she was applying a few mus
tard plasters to my stomach in an
effort to straighten out a few kinks
which had seized me around the
waist.
“ The next time I ’m ten days old
and have a banquet,” I said in a
half-tone to myself, “ I won’t force
any of my bib buttons into bank
ruptcy.”
“ Why, Peter Quayle,” Ma said,
“ have you gone nutty? What arc
you talking about? What do you
mean bv forcing your bib buttons
into bankruptcy?”
“ Well, when £ ate so much ban
quet the top button flew off my
bib it was forced to the wall, wasn’t
it?”
Ma looked at me corner-wise.
Guess she thought I was the queer
est half-moon on the ranch.
Pretty soon the mustard plasters
began to fever up a little. They
grew warm to the touch. M v skin
became quite sultry. “ Whew!” I
exclaimed to Ma. “ I have an idea
that these mustard agitators are
hot enough to straighten out the
Tropic of Capricorn. Whew!” I
exclaimed again as a large head of
sweat rolled off mv brow and struck
the floor with a loud report, “ these

thoughtfully, I added, “ M a, I I*«*-

“ You see,” I explained to Ma.
“ these mustard plasters are partial |
to color and do most of their draw-
mg in the flesh tints. Now from
j what I can grasp from the heat of
the
argument arising
at the
center of agitation there is evi-
dentallv a decided tendency to
produce everything in red, without
regard to race, color or previous
condition of cramptitude. There
seems to be some question as to ;
