The speakers were two small boys,
sun-burned, barefooted, and with big
straw hats. They wore short pants,
buttoned to waist with large white
buttons, and were on their way to the
creek to swim; but at sight of large
patch of ripe berries forgot all about
the water.
go for 'em!'' said the older boy,
and without more delay both scrambled
into the bushes, and were soon stained
inside and out with bright blue juice.
1t does not take long for a boy to gil
himself, and soon both boys were as
full as they could hold.
"Um-guess that is all / can hold"
remarked the first boy.

"All right And without mo-
ment's delay the two little rascals
slipped off their pants. tied up the bot
tom of each leg with string and soon
had each pair of pants full of ripe ber-
ries. Singing their pants over their
shoulders they started for home, slipped
along by the woods, down the hollow,
past the old watering trough. and
reached the barn, where they found a
large basket, emptied the berries and
put the pants where they belonged. And
do you suppose the berries were all nice
whole ones? Not bit of it. About
one-third were mashed and the inside of
the pants were damp and blue.
The boys didn't notice this but picked
up the basket and carried the berries to
mother. Wasn't she delighted! That
same day the berries were prepared and
put in jars. and all that winter we had
huckleberries. But you should have
seen those boys that night when they
undressed for bed! OF all the blue
sights you ever saw, and it would not
rub off either. .a5alF
From the waist down those boys were
one, or rather two, masses of blue.
(Blue mass is a better phrase.) How

To watch the rapid interchange
OF forest, hill and plain.
And see the iron rails reeled on
Like threads from an endless skien-

The chords of iron ring
In tune with every jar
OF the swiftly moving car.
Music ana motion, wefi combined. -
Will give relief to troubled mind.
The trees and fences near the track
Go flying backward fast,
And houses swim in level fields
Until 1t seems at last =
And the world is gliding past, sa

A bridge goes by with bang,
The time to cross its span .s

And span OF life il much too brief al.
To be shortened or clouded by useless grief
A dozen homes are left behind -t5.s
At every minutes run

Are centered in every one.
Somebody's race has only begun ' y
And somebody's nearly done. fngs

But rests on trusty springs.
