"I'm afraid I can't work that way.

When I have something to do I'm not content until it is done." "Are you hot, Sam?
Here is something to cool you off." As Tom spoke he playfully scooped up a handful of water and threw it at his brother.
Soon the two boys were having lots of sport, throwing handfuls of the salty water at each other.

Then Sam made a motion as if he was going to push Tom overboard with his paddle.
"Hi! none of that!" cried Tom.

"I don't mind a wetting by retail, but I don't want it by wholesale." He continued to throw water at Sam and the youngest Rover tried to dodge.

The raft began to rock, and of a sudden Sam lost his balance and went into the bay with a splash.
Tom set up a laugh, for it was a comical sight, and it had been Sam's own fault that he went overboard.
