"Where's that boy gone？"
The old lady looked all around the room．She looked under the bed but found only the cat．
"If I catch that boy， …" she murmured to herself．
She opened the door and looked out into the garden．
"Tom!" she shouted．
Then she heard some noise behind her．She turned round just in time to catch the boy as he came out of a cupboard．
"And what have you been doing there？"
"Nothing，" said the boy．
"Nothing!Look at your hands and your mouth!What is that stuff？"
"I don't know，Aunt"
"Well，I know．It's a jam．I've told you forty times that if you touched that jam，I'd skin you．Give me that stick（棍）．"
"Look out，Aunt!Look behind you!"
The old lady turned round and Tom was out of the door in a second，over the garden fence and away．
"Damn that boy!Will I never learn？He's always playing tricks on me．And he seems to know just now how far he can go too．But I can't take a stick to him．I really can't．After all，he's my dead sister's boy．Ah well，he'll miss classes today and I'll have to make him work tomorrow．"
At supper Aunt Polly tried to trick Tom into admitting that he didn't go to school．
"It was very hot today，wasn't it，Tom？"
"Yes． " answered Tom．
"You didn't have to open your shirt collar where I sewed （縫） it，then．"
Tom was confident now．He opened his jacket．His collar was well sewed．
"Oh Tom， " said Aunt Polly． "You're a good boy really．"
She was sorry that she had been wrong about him．
