"For a moment Aunt Polly stood dumbfounded, then burst out laughing softly, "The devil boy! Can't I ever get any wiser? Hasn't he played enough tricks on me to keep me on my guard? But old fools are the very greatest. They don't say for nothing that an old dog doesn't learn new tricks. But, dear God, his pranks are different every day, and no one can know what is coming. He seems to know exactly how far he may plague me to get me in harness, and if he then succeeds in interrupting me for a minute, or forcing me to laugh, everything is forgotten, and I couldn't do him the least bit either."
