or in some other foolish way

"All right, mother. I'll see what I can do with it."   Jack went out, and Rachel looked more gloomy than ever.   "You'll never see that money again, you may depend on't, Martha," she said.   "Why not, Rachel?"   "Because Jack'll spend it for candy, or in some other foolish way."   "You are unjust, Rachel. Jack is not that kind of boy."   "I'd ought to know him. I've had chances enough."   "You never knew him to do anything dishonest."   "I suppose he's a model boy?"   "No, he isn't. He's got faults enough, I admit; but he wouldn't spend for his own pleasure money given him for buying papers."   "If he buys the papers, I don't believe he can sell them, so the money's wasted anyway," said Rachel, trying another tack.   "We will wait and see," said Mrs. Harding.
