A BOYS IDEA OF HEADS.

The Young american brings up g
boys composition on heads as fol.
lows:
Heads are of different shapes and
sizes. They are full of Dotions. Large
heads do not always hold the most,
Some persons can just tell what a per-
son is by the shape of his head. High
heads are the best kind. Very know.
ing people are called long-headed. A
man that wont stop for anything or
anybody is called hot headed. If he
isn't quite right, they call him soft
headed if he won't be coaxed nor
turned, they call him pig-headed. Ami
mails have large heads. The heads of
fools slant back. Our heads are all
covered with hair, except bald-heads.
There are other kinds of heads besides
our heads. There are barrel heads,
heads of sermons-and some ministers
used to have fifteen heads to one SER
mon, pin heads head of cattle, as the
farmer calls his cows and oxen head
wind drum-heads; cabbage-heads at
come to head, like a
boil heads of chapter head him off;
head of the family, and go ahead-but
first be sure you are right.

NEAR Newark lived a pious family
who had adopted an orphan, who by
the way was rather unidentified. He
had imbibed strict views on RELIGIOUS
matters. however, and once asked his
adopted mother if she didn't think il
was wrong for an old farmer to come
to church and fall asleep, having no
better regard for the service. She re-
piled she did. Accordingly before
going to church the next Sunday he
filled his pockets with apples. One
bald-headed old man, who invariably
went to sleep during the sermon, par
ticularly attracted his attention. See
ing him at last nodding, and giving
usual evidence of being i'm the land of
dreams. he took the astonished slceper
a blow with an apple on top of his
bald pate. The minister and aroused
ut once turned around
and Indignantly gazed at the boy who
merely said to the preacher, with SO
Der, honest expression of countenance.
You preach I'll keep 'em awake -
