r。　Bhaer。　Excuse　me　for　a　moment。　We　are　just　finishing　our　lesson。　Now；　Demi；　make　the　letter　and　tell　its　name。〃　

〃I　knows　him！〃　And；　after　a　few　convulsive　efforts；　the　red　legs　tok　the　shape　of　a　pair　of　compasses；　and　the　intelligent　pupil　triumphantly　shouted；　〃It's　a　We；　Dranpa；　it's　a　We！〃　

〃He's　a　born　Weller；〃　laughed　Jo；　as　her　parent　gathered　himself　up；　and　her　nephew　tried　to　stand　on　his　head；　as　the　only　mode　of　expressing　his　satisfaction　that　school　was　over。　

〃What　have　you　been　at　today；　bubchen？〃　asked　Mr。　Bhaer；　picking　up　the　gymnast。　

〃Me　went　to　see　little　Mary。〃　

〃And　what　did　you　there？〃　

〃I　kissed　her；〃　began　Demi；　with　artless　frankness。　〃Prut！　Thou　beginnest　early。　What　did　the　little　Mary　say　to　that？〃　asked　Mr。　Bhaer；　continuing　to　confess　the　young　sinner；　who　stood　upon　the　knee；　exploring　the　waistcoat　pocket。　

〃Oh；　she　liked　it；　and　she　kissed　me；　and　I　liked　it。　Don't　little　boys　like　little　girls？〃　asked　Demi；　with　his　mouth　full；　and　an　air　of　bland　satisfaction。　

〃You　precious　chick！　Who　put　that　into　your　head？〃　said　Jo；　enjoying　the　innocent　revelation　as　much　as　the　Professor。　

〃‘Tisn't　in　mine　head；　it's　in　mine　mouf；〃　answered　literal　Demi；　putting　out　his　tongue；　with　a　chocolate　drop　on　it；　thinking　she　alluded　to　confectionery；　not　ideas。　

〃Thou　shouldst　save　some　for　the　little　friend。　Sweets　to　the　sweet；　mannling。〃　And　Mr。　Bhaer　offered　Jo　some；　with　a　look　that　made　her　wonder　if　chocolate　was　not　the　nectar　drunk　by　the　gods。　Demi　also　saw　the　smile；　was　impressed　by　it；　and　artlessy　inquired。　。。　

〃Do　great　boys　like　great　girls；　to；　'Fessor？〃　

Like　young　Washington；　Mr。　Bhaer　‘couldn't　tell　a　lie'；　so　he　gave　the　somewhat　vague　reply　that　he　believed　they　did　sometimes；　in　a　tone　that　made　Mr。　March　put　down　his　clothesbrush；　glance　at　Jo's　retiring　face；　and　then　sink　into　his　chair；　looking　as　if　the　‘precocious　chick'　had　put　an　idea　into　his　head　that　was　both　sweet　and　sour。　

Why　Dodo；　when　she　caught　him　in　the　china　closet　half　an　hour　afterward；　nearly　squeezed　the　breath　out　of　his　little　body　with　a　tender　embrace；　instead　of　shaking　him　for　being　there；　and　why　she　followed　up　this　novel　performance　by　the　unexpected　gift　of　a　big　slice　of　bread　and　jelly；　remained　one　of　the　problems　over　which　Demi　puzzled　his　small　wits；　and　was　forced　to　leave　unsolved　forever。
