The bad boys are notau dead yet Two of them
came before the Police Magistrate few days ago
charged with common nuisance in mistaking their
rights as regarded admission to the sacred pre-
cincts of one of our girls boarding schools See
ing the wrath impending, they both plead guilty
and after very sharp and severe lecture were
sentenced to six months imprisonment at hard
labor 1t is TO be hoped that this example will
have its proper influence on others of the hood
lum element. A good whipping in public would
do this class more good as restraint than fines
or imprisonment.

When our devil read the leading editorial
note of our urbane neighbor last Saturday, he
laughed loud and long, and standing on his hands,
with his heels in the air walked about the Office
and told the boss story. Says he: When l was
a small boy on the farm, my father and big broth
ers went out to the orchard to gather apples and
found one of the respectable old codgers of the
neighborhood in the top of a tree stealing apples.
His pockets were full of the finest fruit. That
fore the town squire and charged him with steal
ing. When the case was made out the judge
asked him what his defense was, and he said 'oh
YOU fellows all disappointed sore heads that's
why you charge good man like me with stealing"

One of the singular features of the 18th was the
posting about town of placard bearing the text,
I" What shall it profit man if he gain the whole
world and lose his own SOUL" Perhaps il would
have been effective had it been posted before
people went out to the races so that they could
have seen it and reflected before betting their

reflection however, that some people are SO poor
that in losing their money they lose what soul they

A PERlECILY AWFULLY LOVELY
STORY.

There was once a perfectly model girl.
with perfectly model ways.
That saw perfection in everything
That happened to meet her gaze.
such perfectly lovely things she saw,
And perfectly awful, too,
That none would have dared to doubt
her word,
So perfectly, perfectly true.
The weather, she said in summer time
Was perfectly, aWfully warm:
The winter w"s perfectly, too, when there
came.
Some perfectly terribly storm.
She went to Il perfectly horri,l school,
In perfectly LOrrid town;
And The pea icctly hateful truchels there
Did things up perfectly brown.
Her lessons were perfectly fear foil :, long,
But never were perfectly said,
And when She failed, as often she did,
Her face grew perfectly red.
The church she attended is perfectly mag
With a perfectly heavenly s!irc,
And perfectly crowds go there to hear
perfectly stunning Choir.
! might go on with this 'perlectly' poem
And write to the end Of time,
But fearing to Wear your patience out,
VIII bring to an end my rhyme.
