Mary's Mistake.

Mary had little lamb,
Its fleece was white as snow,
1t straycd away one summer day
Where lambs should meyer 60.
Then Mary sat her quickly down
And tears strcamcd from her eyes;
She never found the lamb, because
She did not advertise.
And Mary had brother John,
Who kept village store;
He sat him down and smoked his pipe
And watched the open door.
And as the people passed along.
And did not stop to buy,
John still sat down and smoked his pipe
And blnked his sleepy eye
And so the sheriff closed him out,
But still he fingered near,
And Mary came to drop with HIM
A sympathetic tear.
"How is 1t, sister, can you tell
Why other merchants here
Sell all their goods so readily
And thrive from year to year?'
Remembering her own bad luck
The little maid replies;
"Thosc other fellows get there, John,
Because they advertise

NOTCRBDlBLb But TRUE

What | have to say is not fiction, but

died many years ago. Most Of her gen.
erations haye followed her to the land,
the inhabitants of which may or may
not revisit ours in visible guise.
The Lord of the quick and the dead
alone knows how this may be. There
is no reason why I should net put into
print what many Of the contemporaries
heard from her own lips. not only at
the date of the mysterious occurrence
that shadowed her life, but when half
century had softened the grisly outlines
of the horror, and she could contem-
plate 1t in perspective, almost with calm
ness, although never without awe.
