Carnforth listened with staring eyes.
What sort of broil WAS this truoulent
little scamp going to mix in next? He
knew enough of Spanish character to
understand clearly that the offer Of the
crown was merely an empty civility.
He understood enough of Kettle to be
sure that he had not taken it as such
and would assert his rights to the bitter
end. And when he thought of what that
end must inevitably be he sighed over
Owen Kettles fate.
But the person he was chiefly sorry
for just then was Martin Carnforth, NJ.

LITTLE BROWN LANDS.


They drive homethe COWS from the pasture,
Up through the long shady lane,
Where the quail whistles loud in the wheat
fields,
That are yellow with ripening grain.
They find in the thick, waving grasses.
Where the scarlet.lipped strawberry grows
They gather the earliest snowdrops,
And the first crimson buds of the rose.
They toss the haydn the meadow;
They gather the elder-bloom white;
They find where the dusky grapes purple
In the soft-tinted October light.
They know where the apples hang ripest,
And are sweeter than Italy's wines;
They know where the fruit hangs the
thickest
On the long, thorny blackberry vines.
They gather the delicate sea-weeds,
And build tiny castles of sand;
They pick up the beautiful sea shells
Fairy barks that have drifted to land.
They wave from the tall, rocking treetops,
Where the ORIOLES hammock-nest swings;
And at night time are folded in slnmber
By song that fond mother sings.
Those who toll bravely are strongest;
The humble and poor become great;
And so from these brown-handed children
Shall grow mighty rulers OF state
The pen of the author and statesman
The noble and wise of the land
The sword and the chisel and palette
Shall be held in the little brown hand.
