After Verdun it must be jolly to be in the hospital with nothing more dangerous than mumps, and a nice, pretty girl, in a white cap, to pet you. I can't think of a handsomer way to spend a repos than that."
They gave tea parties. The children had measles and mumps and were put to bed on the grass with leaf plasters over their faces. Mary was Mrs. Ray and Dot was her little daughter, Lily. At last Mrs. Ray sent Lily to the meadow to buy some flowers. Dot danced gaily away. Just as she was gathering the flowers, a bright, blue butterfly lighted near her and then flew a little farther on.
I thought I would give you a scare," laughed the former sneak of Putnam Hall. "You needn't be afraid but what I and old Bill Goss here know how to keep the Falcon out of danger." "It was foolishness to run so close," said Tom. "Don't you talk to me, Tom Rover. I've had enough of you, mind that." "And I want you to mind and keep off next time, Mumps. If you don't " "What will you do?"
"No, you didn't tell me, and that's why I'm so anxious to know. If she's got the mumps, and the chilblains, and the ingrowing warts " "Oh, crickey! I knew it!" groaned Peleg Snuggers. "I says to myself as I was a-drivin' over, 'if thet Tom Rover comes back, I might as well throw up my job, for he won't give nobody a rest! If you would only "
You don't tell me you've persuaded mother " "I haven't said a word to her," the boy interrupted. "It isn't mumps; it's these breeches. If you can't find time to darn 'em, I'm not going to school till somebody can." The young man tittered, and the girl with a toss of her head and a glance at Parson Jack, who was pretending to tie his boot-lace accepted defeat.
"Well, Fenwick, what do you want?" demanded the teacher, harshly. The sneak of the school generally had some tale of woe to tell, and he was just now in no humor to listen to any such recital. "Please, Mr. Crabtree, did you lose anything?" asked Mumps, nervously. "Ha! what is that? Come in! What do you know?" cried Josiah Crabtree, and caught Mumps by the arm.
If we are strong and healthy, the liver has the power to kill many of the disease germs that get into the body. That is why sometimes, when you have had a chance to take mumps or grippe or some other "catching" disease, you don't take it. Your liver kills the germs, or seeds. See how carefully Mother Nature has planned that we may be clean inside as well as outside.
There I rummaged in a box of old photographs until I found two fairly good likenesses of Jack. I carried them to the kitchen and put them in Dicky's hands. He glared at them, then threw them on the table. "Humph! Looks like a gorilla with the mumps," he growled. "Who is this precious party, then, if he is not a lover or a relative?" "He is an old and dear friend.
"Now, in about a week your arm will begin to itch," said the doctor, "and it will tickle you, and then, after a bit, you will be vaccinated, and you can go to school." "Very good," said Curly, and he wondered why all little animal children had to be vaccinated, and have the mumps and the measles- pox and epizootic, and all things like that, but he couldn't guess, and so he didn't try.
"I don't see how I can help you out, sir," answered George Strong, sympathetically. "I shall have to stay here until something is done. See if you can't find the cadet who took the teeth." "I will do what I can," answered George Strong, and left the room. Josiah Crabtree was walking up and down nervously, when there came a timid knock on the door. He opened it to confront Mumps.
