But it was not always possible to keep a watch. Mr. Flowers had tried many ways to protect his glass, but anything that he had done had not been useful. He had been to school to report to the headmaster, but this had not done any good. He had tried to drive away the boys, but the boys ran faster than he could, and they laughed at him from far away. He had even picked up all the stones that he could find around his garden so that the boys would have nothing to throw, but they soon found others.

　　At last Mr. Flowers had a good idea. He put up a large notice made of good and strong wood, some meters away from the glass－houses. On it he had written the words: DO NOT THROW STONES AT THIS NOTICE. After that, Mr. Flowers had no further trouble; the boys were much more tempted to throw stones at the notice than at the glass­houses.
