Bill Arp'g Baby Talk.

The poet hath said that "baby
in the house is well-spring oil
! pleasure. There is a bran new
Que here now, the first in eight
years, and it has raised a powerful
commotion. It's not our baby, ex-
'actly, but it's in the line of descent,
and Mrs. Arp takes on over it ali
the same as she used to when she
was regularly in the business.
thought maybe she had forgot how
to nurse EN- and talk to EN-, but
she is singing the same old familiar
songs that have sweetened the
dreams of half a score, and she
blesses the little eyes and sweet
little mouth, and uses the same in
fantile language that nobody but
babies understand. For she says
"tum here to its danmudder," and
''bess its lite heart" and talks
about its sweet little footsy-tootsies,
and holds it up to the windows 10
see the wagons go by and the
wheels going rouny-pouny, and now
my liberty is curtailed, for as / go
stamping around with my heavy
farm shoes she shakes her ominous
finger at me just as she used to do,
and says don't you see the baby is
asleep, and so / have to tlptoe
around, and ever and anon she
wants a little fire, or some hot Wa
ter, or little catnip, for the baby
is a-crying and surely has got the
collie. The doors have to be kept
shut now, for fear of draft of air
on the baby, and a little hole in
the window pane about as big as q
dime had to be patched, and l have
10 hunt up a passel Of kin lings
every night and put 'em where they
will be handy, and they have sent
me off to another room where the
baby can't hear me snore, and all
things considered the baby is run
ming the machine, and the we'll
spring of pleasure is the center Of
space.
A grandmother is a wonderful
help and q great comfort at such a
time as this, for what does a young
mother with her first child know
about collie, and thrash, and hives,
and hiccups, and it takes good
deal of faith to dose 'em with suet
tea, and catnip, and lime water and
paregoric, and soothing syrup, and
sometimes with all of these the
child gets worse, and if it gets bet
ter I've always had a curiosity to
know which remedy it was that did
the work. Children born of healthy
parents can stand a power of medi-
cine and get over it, for after the
cry comes the sleep, and sleep is
wonderful restorer.
Rock 'em awhile in the cradle, and
then take 'em up and jolt EN- a lit
tie on the knee, and turn 'em over
and jolt 'em on the other side, and
then give 'em some sugar III rag,
and after awhile they will go to
sleep and let the poor mother rest.
I here is no patent on this business,
no way of raising EN- all the same
way, but it is trouble, trouble from
the start, and nobody but mother
knows how much trouble it is. A
man ought to he q mighty good
man just for his mothers sake, if
nothing else, for there is no toll or
trouble like nursing and caring for
little child, and there is no grief
50 great as a mothers if all her care
and anxiety are wasted on an I'M
grateful child

LITTLE All SID

Little All Sid

cute little cuss you'd declare
With eyes full of fun,
And q nose that begun
Right mp at the roots of his hair.
Jolly and fat
Was this frolicsome brat,
As he played through the long summer day
Ard braided his queue
AS his father used to
In Chlnaland far, far away.
Once over a lawn
That All Sid played upon
A bumble-bee flew in the spring,
"Melican buttleAyn
Said he, winlcing his eye;
"Me eatchee and pull of um wing
And then with his cap
10 struck It a rap
This innocent humhle-bee-
And put it's remains
In the seat Of his Jeans;
For pocket there had the Chinee.
Then down on the green
Sat the little sardine,
In style that was strangely demure,
And said with a grin,
That was brimful of sin,
"Me mashee nm buttlehy sure"
Little All Sid
Was only kid,
Nor could YOU expect him to guess
What Kind of "a bug
lie was holding so snug
In the folds Of his loose fitting dress.
"Ki-yil Ki-yip-yew
