An Observing: Child.

One man In New York had social aspirations Which somewhat warped his admiration of his homespun father. The father actually sometimes relapses into the barbarism of eating with his knife. But the man has a little son whose eyes seek and find out the truth. The other day the little boy licked some mashed potatoes from his knife, and his mother eluded him. "Sammy, dear," she said, "only stupid people eat with their knives." "How can you say that, mamma?" cried the child. "Grandpa eats with his knife. And be made all our money!" .
