Josh B,,lrngs ON Strawberries.

The strawberry IL one of natur s sweet
pets. She makes them worth fifty cents
the fust she makes, and never allows
them TO be sold at mean price.
The color NV the strawberry is like the
setting of the sun under a thin cloud,
with delicate splash nv rain in it; its
fragrance IL like the breath NV baby
when it fust begins to eat wintergreen
lozzengers; its flavor IL like the nectar
which an old-fashioned goddess used to
leave in the bottom NV the tumbler, when
Jupiter stood on Mount Ida.
There IL many breeds NV this delight
full vegetable, but not a mean one in the
hull lot.
| think i have stole them, laying
around loose, without any pedigree, in
somebody's tall grass, when ] was lazy
school-boy, that eat dreadful easy, with
out any white sugar on them, and even
bug occasionally mixed with them in
the hurry nv the moment. Cherrys IL
good, but they are too much like sucking
marble with handle to it. Peaches
IL good if u don't get any of the pin
feathers into your lips. Water-melons
will suite ennybody who is satisfied with
halfsweetened drink but the man who
can eat strawberries besprinkled with
crushed sugar and despatched with
kream (at somebody's else s expense) and
not lay his hand on his stummak and
thank the author of strawberries and
stummaks, and the phellow who pays for
the strawberries, IL a man with a worn
out conscience-a man whose mouth
tastes like q hole in the ground and
don't care what goes down.
