BEFORE AND AFTER THE FoURrH.

The small boy OF yester morn
Was strong and stout of limb;
Danger he laughed to scorn;
To-day what aiieth himg
A crutch doth him support:
One arm IL I'm a sling;
His head Is bandaged taut:
He may moi play nor sing.
His face Il scorched and black,
He hath but half a Ose
One ear hath jumped the track,
Both eyes are on the close.
Filled tn the very crown
Is suffering bitter cup;
1t hurts him TO sit down,
Ii hurts him 10 stand up.
Still the unconquered lad,
Half speeches., whispers yet,
"You dear I'D Pop, ] had
A bully Fourth, you bet"
