Little boy had gotten into the habit of saying "darn" of which his mother naturally did not approve. "Dear," she said to the boy, "here is a dime. It is yours if you will promise not to say 'darn' again." "All right, Mother," he said as he took the money, "I promise." As he lovingly fingered the money a hopeful look came into his eyes, and he said: "Say, Mother, I know a word that's worth a dollar."
