Bébé est neurasthénique (1911) Online
Jimmie did not like arithmetic, but he did like his nurse, Julie. But mamma and papa insisted that Jimmie must get his lessons right or else go to bed without supper. On this occasion, Jimmie could not add a column of figures correctly, so, much against the protestation of Julie, Jimmie was put supperless to bed. The nurse, however, conspired to steal some food for Jimmie, but being caught in the act was forthwith discharged. That was enough for Jimmie. He shammed a deathly sickness. Nothing would revive him. In the throes of seeming death, the cunning schoolboy asked for a paper and with all the ceremony attendant upon the signing of a will, penned the fact that he wanted to see Julie again. At first the latter steadfastly refused to return, but relented in haste when she read the message of her dear little charge. Needless to state, Jimmie acted perfectly healthy and Happy when his Julie was reinstated.
