denudation of one foot in 8, 1000 years,
a period of 2S, 600, 900 years. This,

THE CHILDREN IN THE STREETS.

The sweetest sounds in the city wide
Arc those when the children shout and call
In the hollow streets at eventde.
When the mellow western shadows fall;
They run and they jump,
They tumble and bump,
In the sounding streets In the evening time
Many a time I have tripped over Tot,
And broken my shins over Jacks and Jims;
But went on my way and needed IL not.
FOR the a1gho Of q child is the sweetest OF
hymns;
They scream and they shout
And they scRmper about,
In the Joyous streets in the evening time.
But owler that growl and bachelors old,
Cry out at the game and object to the din;
They snarl and complain, they croak and they
scold,
At the child who plays In the street-its a
sin
Let them tumble and leap.
Like wee, wee sheep.
In tho ~sounding streets Of the evening time.
