Arbor Day.

New England Farmer.
Arbor day is one of the "new fan
gled notions that is prime full of
rare common sense. The practical
phase Of tree planting is important,
but no less important is its education
al and esthet;c bearing. Farmers
have too often been pictured as
rough, and lacking in the finer sensi-
bilities, incapable of approaching a
picturesque landscape, the graceful
figure of a beautiful tree, or the glow
ing colors of some exquisite flower.
The conceiving by the oranges Of
such thing as arbor day and the
persistence with which it has been
kept before the public by the agricul-
tural element in the community
proves the superfciality of these
charges. The Inauguration of such a
holiday will be an educator and also
remove even the slim foundation
that may have seemed, in some
minds, to have existed to build such
charges upon. Let arbor day teach
all classes to study nature more and
inspire the general public with more
appreciation of the beauties that can
be found on every hand if one has his
eyes open.

"rF YOU COLLAR DAT, YOU GO TO DE JUG"
The East Side newsboys are not generally
supposed to be as honest as good Sunday
school children, either. But here is a first
rate story about two of them. like to think
Of it, like to know that the raggedest and
dirtiest of children can be as clean in heart
as the best.
An Italian bootblack picked out Of the
mud between the street car tracks a sealed
envelope 1t was plainly letter that some
body had dropped just as he was going to
put it in the postoffice. The postoffice was
near by.
The Italian tore open the letter There
were bank bills inside. He partly drew them
out. Two newsboys were watching him.
They were Patsey O'Shea and Mickey Cor
coran The Italian dropped the envelope
into his pocket. Patsey and Mickey pounced
upon him like a cat upon q mouse.
eff you collar dat" said Mickey, "you go to
de jug wild de aldermen"
Mickey referred by this to some wicked and
dishonest aldermen whom the people of New
York are now trying to put into prison.
Patsey and Mickey held the Italian and
took the envelope from him. He ran away
in hurry glad to get off without pound
ing There were $50 in the envelope The
two boys took it tn newspaper Office, showed
it upon the clerk there, and said:
"Find de ownes of de DOODLE"
The newspaper people advertised the en-
velope, and told how it was found That
day a man called for it. He was a printer,
and was just about sending the letter with
the money in it to his wife in the country,
when he dropped it.
He left a silver dollar apiece for the two
boys who returned his money. But at that
the other newsboys made fun of them be-
cause they did not get any more The
owner of the bank bills was not a rich man.
"Dozo boys is chumps, said one small fel.
low 1--WE wudn't a-give up de swag for a
dollar, wud we, Jimmy"
But the two honest boys were satisfied.
Everybody who heard of them praised them
highly When they want places to work,
hereafter, they win have no trouble in find
ing good ones

Two Brave NeMsboYs.

The part of New York city next Long
Island sound is called the East Side. One
walking through there will hear the strangest
mixture of languages. There are Germans
Italians, Poles and Chinese. Each race has
street or locality to itself The Irish
brogue is heard there, too. Children of all
races running together in the streets and all
trying to speak English, naturally muddled
it and got it mixed up The same state
of things has existed more or less for over
thirty years. Many of these East Siders do
not go much into other parts of the city.
They have world of their own 1t is said
there are in New York young people nearly
grown who never saw the ocean. Many
things have united to keep the East Siders to
themselves. The mixing of languages has
developed among the children and young
people real dialect This is unlike that
spoken anywhere else or by anybody else.
Il is something like the negro dialect, but
quite distinct. The say even when young
Cast Side New Yorker of the classes men
toned gets up in the world and becomes edu-
Gated and well off this curious brogue still
clings to him.
Another thing Somehow the East Side
boys take naturally to being newsboys and
bootblacks. They are as bright and quick
and Shrewd as any boys in the world, too

soil mixed with vegetable mold and sand is
necessary for a seed bed. Pulverize it thor
