Fancies Of Boyhood,

While yet boy of ten years old, it was
a sore puzzle which we should be-a farm
er, store-keeper, or stage driver. The
last honorable business had the preference
in our mind. Yet there were days when
the other named pursuits strongly urged
their attractions. We reflected that if
farmer we should not have to drive the
COWS to and from the pastures, but should
have boy to do it for US /; we should
have men to work under US, and not, as
then, be obliged ourselves to work under
them. We could rest when we pleased
aud DO one could scold US. In short, the
attractions of farming life were manifold.
But however attractive, we never return
ed from an errand downtown without feel
ing our preferences shaken. store was
to our young eyes a mystery of sights and

Stopping a Newspaper

the earth remained aud only his foot was
injured by the encounter. This is the
way of man. An article in newspaper
