ABSOLUTELY PURE
MOLER'S AVENUE.

Every grown person up here
is melted all except the bones
and they have scarcely enough
vital energy to rattle protest
that we can't stand anything
much hotter than the weather at
present but the small fry do not
seem to be affected by the heat,
just as many frogs and sparrows
are brought home, as trophies of
the chase, as when the weather
was cooler. To-day the boys hi
larity reached it's vertex when
four boys were trying to get a
fifth out of a hammock. We
had to smile, for we have not
grown too old to enjoy the sports
of childhood, nor too happy to
wish we were boy again. Our
lips were parted to exclaim, It's
almost glimpse of Heaven to
see children's faces aglow with
innocent enjoyment when, could
we believe our ears? Yes, there
really fell a naughty kuss word.
Instantly every face wore sor-
rowful expression, one boy said,
I'm going to tell your pa"
Guess you never sweared any,"
put in the little culprit in such a
sarcastic tone that the first speak
er flushed and admitted, +" well
don't curse regular (only once in
awhile, ;" :" Then I'd leave some
one else condemn a Teller for
something l was guilty of myself,
if | were you," cried the rest in
a chorus. "We say so too-he
who would deal out punishment
and justice ought himself to be
blameless," said voice from an
upper window. The boys per-
ceiving that their conversation
was overheard, as usual, took
refuge in flight and a cloud of
dust covered their retreat. Well
though It's admitted it's but a
step from the sublime to the ridi-
culous. In this little life Incl
dent we detect only a breath sep
arating the sublime from the rid
iculous.
More music up here Monday
night and the stars blinked their
satisfaction as they couldn't
they were too nearly roasted and
the people craned their necks to
catch a sight of those who were
making such delightful music,
but could not find out, it was too
dark
Several took in the Catholic
picnic and didn't get home till
morning-reports say they had a
good time, however ending sadly

was crushed to death. LOT.
