Her Great Comfort.

Donald and Charlie, two Muncie boys of eleven, went for a “hike" the other day, and when the noon luncheon hour arrived failed to appear after an absence of two hours, causing Donald’s mother to become worried, fearing an accident had happened to the boy, who is always prompt at meal times, even if not on other occasions. But the father ate his luncheon calmly, being wise to the ways and wanderings of boys of eleven, and unworriedly started for his office at one o’clock, when the wife remarked to him, her brows furrowed with care, “What, shall I do if Donald doesn’t come?” “Ml tell you what you do,” said her consoler. “Now, if .that boy doesn t get back In an hour from now, you call me up at the Office and I’ll tell you not to worry.”—lndianapolis News.
