girls, and the weather being very
bad, they were in great hurry to
leave. Ere darkness began to gath.

membered the old adage. ut is bad
luck to go the first time you start"
They fingered until the day had
gone into the embrace of darkness.
Then with fearful eyes, aching
hearts, and fond adieus, they startt
for their homes. The joys of life
are mixed with sorrows. They had
gone but short distance when
these boys saw something terrible,
beyond description. They say. they
were not afraid, but the fastest way
they could go, was too slow. They
started to run together, and "Sager'
out ran until he ran into n sink hole
about eight feet across, and "ker
chunk" he took the side of the hole
opposite to the one from which he
entered. ''Prude' passed safely, and
heard the following petition offered
by "Sager:"
80 Lord, shield me from the on
coming danger. I wouldn't have
come out tonight, if it hadn't beer
for "Prude." o "booger," take
"Prude," if you -. At that "Sa
ger" heard n yell and when he found
his partner he had run against n COW
and was sitting in tha roll, very
we'll contented it seemed. He saif
he was resting and then he began
to sing, This earth is n dreary place
Heaven is my home"

spend the greater portion of tn
dark part of their lives in the be,
