MY OWL EYED TROUSERS.

have suffer'd deal i'll this troublous world.
Though most of my gricfs now seem mild,
Yet I'd rather have died than have had my
hair curlcd
AS pcrforce it was curled when a child,
But nothing so ground me. so bitterly stunS,
So filed my proud soul with annoy,
As-my pen shakes with wrath and daren t
trust my tongue
My old owl eyed trousers when a boy.
Did start off to school with Il feigned serene
face,
Mine eyes meekly bent on the ground,
voice from the rear would soon alter the
case.
"You're a-goin the wrong way. Turn
around"
"Whatch you doin-walkin backwards" they d
say.
can hear all those jecrs to this day,
And while pleasures enough have since bright
ened my years,
Sad memory pours in alloy
When think of those days OVERLOOKING with
tears
And my owl eyed trousers when boy.
One patch was light red, the other was green,
On a background of jeans silver gray.
Though my hands We're expansive those 'cycs'
could be seen
Full mile tween my fingers they say.
Whew! If e'er | should gain the reward of the
just
And mount TO the kingdom of Joy,
Should see them, I'd simply get right up and
dust
My old owl eyed trousers when Il boy.

\ MONEY IN WHEAT,
Realise Enormous Profits
nv Co

Dbl &, BY the Rise.
Il Chicago, Aug. 20. 80 Dollar wheat"
was reached on the Chicago board Of
trade Saturday. The floor and galleries
Of the big exchange hall were packed
with a bowling mob, in which were dis
tinguished the cries Of the vanquished
and the exultant cries Of the victorious.
Just ten minutes before the close at
12 o'clock Schwartz, Dupee & Co.
bought the first slice Of September
wheat offered at 81. Not since 1891 has
that figure been attained on the board.
and when the news flashed forth it
caused wave of excitement which was
new even to the Oldest trader in the pit.
AT closing the price had dropped half 9
cent. j AssS esa u "a X. Il
The profits yielded by these enor-
nous daily advances may be imagined
when it is remembered that barely
month ago the price fuctuated in the
vicinity of IS and 20 cents.
Although the advance in the price Of
wheat will be aSboom to the wheat
stocked farmer and the professional
SPECTATOR there is no assurance that
it will result in any material good to
the ultimate consumer. Local whole
sale bakers declare the price of bread
will follow the upward course of wheat
and loaves that now cost five cents will
be raised to|six cents if the dollar mark
in wheat is maintained. The demand
for six cents, it is said, will be made
just as soon as bakers are compelled to
pay more than $3.50 barrel for their
-four.

est prices Of September wheat and corn
