The Dupuyer acantha. [volume] (Dupuyer, Mont.) 1894-1904, 1901-08-29

I've packed my traps and I'm gmn' back where the fields are green and broad,
And the cots with their legs all doubled up, are roIhn' o N the sod;
they'll smile, | spose, when they see me come, and they'll, some of EN-, like
say 4
They thought I'd forsaken the farm for good the day that l went away
But let 'm smle-Pm gon' back-Pm sick of the noise and fuss,
Where a couple Old dollars count for more than the life o a common cuSC
They'll nobody notice I've went away-f you told EN- they wouldn't are,
But somebody's taceH be full of joy when she greets her boy back there.
I'm gon' back, for I've had my fn-Tve saw what there is to see;
The city may still be the place for you, but it's lost its charm for me;
And won't i be lonesome there, you say with the people SO far apart?
Well, 1mebby they're few and far between, but each of ems got a heart;
There amt no hundreds of thousands there o push you around, l know,
Not carln a cent where you're comm from OF where you're tyIn' to 60
There amt a lonesomer place IN earth than the chys crowded street.
I'm gon' back where the dogs asleep IN the step by the kitchen door,
With his lose pushed down between his paws-Pm sick of the smoke and roar;
there's money to make where the crowds aret thick and thyr tyn' to rip things
~@ loose
There's money to get if you've got the grit, but dang it all! what's the use?
They hustle for dollars all through the day and dream of dollars in bed,
And forgive the gougin' a fellow may do as long as he gets ahead
They hustle and hustle and coop themselves in dark little holes and fret
And honor a person accordn' to the money he's managed to get.
I'm gon back where the popars stand in tall rows down the lane,
Where the bobsleds settn' beside the barr. defyn' the sun and rain;
Where the birds are singin' away as though they wereh hired to fill the air
With a sweetness that nobody ever can know who was never a boy out there;
I'm going back where they'll not expect m to sit in the kitchen when
I'm courhn' the girl / love because I'm workin' for other en-
That they think the money they've got must make them a blame sight better
than me-.
I'm gon back, and you'll stay here and rush, in the sam old way,
Coin to work and then gmn home-the sam thing day by day
And you'll think you're havna high old tne and I'll pity you, lookin' back
(From where l whistle across the heds) at you n the sam old trackl-
I'm gon' back, but the crowds won't know, and they'll still keep rushin' on;
They'll never notice that som ones face is misin' when / am gone
No, they'll never notice that som ones gone-if they did they wouldn't care
But every reen be noddin' to m when | turn up the lane back there.

The Band Lied.

Copyright, 1901, by Daily Story Pub. Coz
To sum it all up, the volunteer may
be divided into three distinct classes
those who follow the drum from a
sense of duty, heroes; those in search
of glory, fools; together with a few
rascals and unfortunates, who for
strictly personal reasons wish to hide.
The first two predominant, and while
many arguments may be brought for
Yard TO show they are not, judging
from motives alone, heroes or fools, a
hot campaign soon proves the truth of
the assertion. A hot sun, an empty
stomach and a vivid view of death
is enough to convince any man. The
third class has nothing to hope for,
nothing to regret. The favored few
reap fame, all reap hardship and i'll
health, while the life often generous
ly provides an unmarked grave for the
majority.
Jim Doyle, private, always argued in
this fashion, and was rewarded with
the title Of "%grumbler" for his pains;
but after his lecture on the ridge that
day I have no doubt the men of the
Sixteenth thoroughly agreed with him.

THE sw1N11r1Ne SEASON.

When Willie came home last night
he was convinced of the useless
ness of schools than he ever was be-
fore. Asked the nature of his latest
trouble, he explained that postpone"
had been one Of the words in the
spelling lesson of the day. The teach
er had directed the pupils to write a
sentence in which the special word
should appear.
Along with others, Willie announced
that he did not know the meaning of
the word, and so could not use it in
a sentence. The teacher explained that
it meant delay" or put off," and
encouraged the youngsters to try. Will
lies thoughts were on pleasanter
things than school, and his made-to-
order sentence was: Boys postpone
their clothes when they go swimming"

Dobbs met his friend Turner in the
train. They were both going to Lon
don, and stopped at the same hotel.
Turner registered his name:
e. K. Phtholognyrrh."
Dobbs noticing it, exclaimed:
Here, what are you assuming such
a foreign, outlandish name for? Are
you in any trouble?"
"Not a bit of it," replied Turner;
"and am not assuming any foreign
name"
What kind of a name is that?" de-
manded Dobbs.
"That is my identical old name"
persisted Turner, "and it is English,
too-pronounced plainly Turner"
II can't see how you make Turner
out of those thirteen letters. Besides
what is your object in spelling that
way?" asked Dobbs.
well you see, nobody ever noticed
my name on the register when 1 wrote
