There were quite a num ber of customers present, but only one drew my attention, because of his wild behaviour. This was a youth Of about seventeen years of age who, I judged, was now taking the. First intoxicating drink of his life. He did not seem to be at all dangerous, in Spite of the manner in which he threw his body here and there, and the whole company appeared to be amused at him. I wish that I could meet my father now, cried the youth, shaking his head and giving the bar a kick.

At last they managed to get him there, and the last words I heard as they went into the street were, Oh.
