Merely Wanted to Know.

Alvin comes to see me dally. On each visit I usually give him something, candy or whatever I have. Happening to have an exceptionally good box of sweets I gave him a piece, whereupon he returned the second time that day and inquired: "Have you got any more of that good candy?” Reproving him for asking for It he replied, “I didn’t ask to gub me any ; I dust want to know if you dot any more.” —Chicago Tribune.
