A COMPOSITION ON PARENTS.

Parents are born to be a great trouble
to their offspring. When was ever 50
little, remember, tried to hang up the
kitten by my whip-lash, and mother tool;
the kitten away. boxed my ears, and
went and drowned it herself the next day.
SO she had all the fun herself And fa-
theirs worse than mother He told me
TO take care of the pennies and the dollars
would take care of themselves so | and
Ben Smith formed an Anti-Swearing
Club. We had rule for every profane
word we used we should pay cent into
the treasury. We had seventy-fye cents
in the first day, but when we divided,
and | fetched thirty-seven and halt
cents home, father said it was a bad bus
mess, whipped me and broke up the club.
How is a fellow to know when he is do
ing right Ii l had no parents to hound
me round I'd beat George Washington
all hollow for I'd cut down every cherry
tree in the garden, and own it, too. III
was an orphan, know what I'd do {:
Ben Smith ard me would go straight to
a desolate South Sea island and stir up
the goats and monkeys and things, fry
toad-stools, eat toranges spell, then we'd
make ship and sail around the world
What's the use ofdrying up in one place?
told mother, one day, when she wouldn't
give me 10 cents, that | meant to go n
whaling, and | hoped whale would
swallow me, as one did Jonah, and then
she wouldn't never see me again, for
can't swim. She sald | wouldn't be like
ly to'make such visit, for | would turn
the whales stomach mighty quick after
got there. Wasn't she bully? If |
were a parent ! know what I'd do-I'd
keep still and mind my own business,
and let my children have some fun
There's Tom Cuts lives with his aunt,
and has a bully time. lie goes wood
chucking on Sundays, has new clothes,
crawls under the canvass Of every circus
tent, earns money at the theater, sleeps
in the stable when he likes, and always
has his pockets full Of peanuts. He says
he wouldn't be bothered with parents, if
he could have them eor nothing. and he
thinks if | hadn't any it would be money
in my pocket. Them's my sentiments
