OUR BOY.
BIZ EUGENE FIELD.

In this mild. malarious weather OF
spring @Our 10y arises early Of .
morning. He has rested we'll: .
dreamless sleep has prepared him for
another day of con luest. He begins
his diurnal career b. awakening the
whole household. Perchance he drives
his velocipede up and down the back
hall; maybe he enlivens the situation
in the kitchen with rough-and-tum-
BILE battle with the argus-eyed hired
girl, whose blessed prerogative it is to
defend the family sugar bowl against
all depredatory Corners. One thing
can be depended upon: @Our Boy
will let everybody within hearing dis
lance know that he then and there il
on earth and has come to stay. An
other thing can be depended upon
sour Boy" Will put on his best clothes
instead of his everyday clothes unless
his sagacious mother has sequestered
those best clothes in one of those mys'
ferrous hiding places which womankind
is so fertile in devising. sour Boy" is
i wonderously proud of his best trousers
proud of them until he gets them
on. When he once gets them on he
seems to be equally proud of running
them as fast as he can.
The game of marbles is an invention
of the devil in the interest Of tsilort
and to the distraction of mothers. The
morning and the evening of the first
