“Pills?” said Aunt Grenertsen. “I have never taken pills in all my long life.” Jerry was first awake in the morning. He roused Bob but not until he had a fire going and the coffee-pot singing merrily. Bob got up and, slipping off his clothes, dived into the river. The water was cold but not unpleasantly so.
