OF it for fever and ague. Some persons
think nothing else will cure fever and

The Modern Hiawatha,

Once a small boy sat, Respondent,
gazing through the grimy window, as
he thought Of unlearned lessons and of
whlppings to be gotten, if he
didn't learn them straightway;
as he gazed across the alley, sud
denly he saw a flaming, haring,
gorgeous circus handful, and for hours
it held him spellbound. Then he rose
from off his cushion, and went straight
way to his father. "Pa," said be-, II
want a dollar, for the circus soon is COM
ing, with it's mammoth aggregation
of unwritten freaks of nature"
And his pa did grasp his collar "Go,
my son, unto the woodpile, and take
with you, from the kitchen, some small
sections of fat bacon, grease the saw, and
by your working, cast out from thee
these foul visions of this worthless, no.
good circus"
All the while the small boy labored,
till the sweat stood on his forehead, and
his back ached and his arms ached, and
his dad sneaked through the alley and
took n the jolly circus, bought a ticket
to the sideshows and had more fun
than the next man. Soon the small boy
grew to manhood and had small boys,
like his daddy, and he made them rush
the woodpile,, while he went unto tue
circus; then he came home and SAID to
them: sold Abe Lincoln made his for
tune splitting fence rails by the hun
dred; go my son, and do thou likewise"
Thus it goes on through the ages, and
the old man has the picnic and the small
boy does the hard work and the old man
gets the credit.
