The Country Mouse (5) [The Country Mouse]

The Country Mouse (5)

  On the other side of the table an open jar that said " Mustard " looked inviting.

  Abner had never seen mustard before, but he didn't want to admit such ignorance of fancy food to his cousin.

  So pretending that mustard was his favorite flavor of jam, he plunged his face into the jar and took a big mouthful.

  There was a moment of shook followed by a terrible burning that brought tears to his eyes.
  His mouth felt as if it were on fire !

  Poor Abner ran about looking for something to put out the fire in his mouth.

  When he saw a glass of a pale, bubbly liquid, he climbed up to its rim and swigged it gratefully.

  " Say ! " he thought, when his mouth had finally cooled off, " this stuff tastes pretty good ! "

  And before Monte could stop him, Abner had drained the whole glass of champagne, bubbles and all.
