MIR. DOWsER SHARPENS HIS sCYTIIE
that bears any fruit between now and
dinner time I'll have it on the table.
He told you there were oceans of cur
rants, but l can't find any bushes
Busiest" exclaimed Mr.. BOwser.
"Do you expect to find currants growing
81 bushes! l thought you were brought
up OH a farm?"
where do they grow" she asked.
"Do you see that bed out there? Well,
when it's time for currants we'll have
'em by the bushel. There you go! What
are you grinning at now?'
"That is a bed of burdocks ont theroi"
she laughed.
"Burdocks! Never! Never, in all this
world! l was jumping over burdocks as
a boy before you saw the light of day.
You may think they are burdocks, Mrs.
Bowser, but what you don't know about
farming would fill a mighty big book.
Don't you worry about currants-Ill
see that we have 'em by the barrel.
Now, then, to sharpen my scythe'
There was a scytho hanging up in the
barn and Mr.. Bowser lugged it up to
the house and spent half an hour look
ing for something to sharpen it with.
There was nothing better than brick.
bat, and he worked away with that and
whistled yankee Doodle until he
thought he had worked up an edge.
While he was working and whistling a
farmer who was driving along tho road
stopped to ask:
"Hello, naybur. Gittin ready fur
hayin2"
THAT'S what I am" replied Mr..
Bowser.
know all about mowin, I s'pose"
Guess / do-why:"
ooh, nuthin l kinder thought You
did from the way you sharpcncd that
scytho. Coin to hev u fine day of it, by
the looks Of things"
"What was he saying?" asked Mrs.
Bowser as she came out and the farmer
had driven along.
He'd never seen scythe sharpened
with brichbat before, Iguess, replied
Mr.. Bowser. THAT'S what the anconts
used altogether Old Pliny and Socrates
and Diogenes would have laughed to
see man use milestone. Does the
thing look all right to your"
eyes, but l don't believe you ever
handled a scythe in all your life"
"You don't, eh?' he growled as he
rolled up his shirt sleeves. "You may
believe what you want to, but when l
begin throwing grass over the house
you'll take q back seat. Never handled
scythe, ch? Perhaps your father was
the only man in the United States who
ever sent IL ton of hay tomarkot. If you
don't want that boy cut in two at the
first clip get him out Of the wayr'
Young Rowscr was pulled out of the
grass and seated on the doorstep, and as
Mr.. Bowscr spat on his hands and flour
ishcd the scythe around Mrs. Rowser
retreated. Mr. Bowser made three or
four motions to get the chang of the
thing and then drew n long breath
and made tremendous swipe at the
grass before him. He remembered
enough about moving to recollect that
mower should utter ''hu" and give
n sort Of squat" as he swung the
scythe. The "hu" was all right and the
squat" fairly up to the mark, but the
poi:tt Of the scythe stuck into the ground
instead Of orcircling the grass, and such
was ar. Bowser's grip Oh the handles
thdt he Loaf his equilibrium and tumbled
over himself and went head first into
the tahgle. His hat was jammed down

over his eyes, his month was filed with
stuff, and us he got up with Mrs. Bow
ser's help. while young Bowser began
to howl in dismay, ho jumped up and
down and shouted:
woman! This is your doings, and
by the whiskers Of my great. grandfather
I'll get even with you for it!'
"Why, what did I dor" asked Mrs.
Bowser.
Never you mind-I SEQ through 1t

cut my throatl Was that your little
plani'
'I'm sure I-I"-
"You get into the house md the boy

made that stroke, you grabbed my leg
and threw me DOWN."
Mrs. Bowser and her only son disap.
peared, and after picking up the scytho
and looking it all over and taking rest
for ten minutes Mr.. Bowscr sought out
new place to begin. He moistened his
hands again, looked around at the house
and then started in as before. The
Thu" and the squat" worked up tip
top, but instead of entering the grass
the blade "swiped'' along in the air,
with the result that Mr.. Bowser was
turned clear around with the momentum
and the point Of the scythe struck the
only shade tree OH the place and was
broken off short At the same time one
of the handles Of the scytho hit him in
the stomach and left him gasping for
breath, and as he sank down he thought
rather than gasped:
