'It would never do to cast a slur on so estimable a citizen, but let me tell you what he does. = He hires the chil- dren in the neighborhood to pick raspberries for him, and it is part of the bargain that they must whistle all the time they are in the berry patch. As he is always within hearing he is 'able in this way to make sure that they do mot eat any of the delicious berries they are picking. Now, what do you think of a man like that ?
