Mrs. Smith cast a critical and severe eye upon her husband and children.

She pounced upon Tommy, stretched him across her knee as she seated herself on a chair, and applied her strong right hand violently to that aggrieved young gentleman's person till her hand swelled up, and Tommy let out a series of yells which could be heard throughout the building.
