"Well," responded Bertrsm with the

said the disciples pushed the little chill
dren away from Christ on the Mount
and It doesn't say in the Bible that the
little children were ever pushed"

pale cheeks Of Bertram.

Possibly this will reach you in blaze

which il is about TO be evolved are

lawn across the way and the shivering
vines clinging to the strings stretched
across our bow window look absurdly
unreal, like painted stage scenery, q
travesty on nature.

to freeze and hang midway. A diabolic

Twas long ago that
Omar sweetly sang,
In Persian lands
his singing clearly rang
OF wines and roses
did the Persian write,
OF other things
my ruder harp shall twang.
For 10! the spring Is here
with al its hope,
With al its serubbins pals
and cakes Of soap,
And women 20 abeut
with mops and brooms
And with the dirt Of many
months they wildly cope.
Their heads enwrapped about
with towels white,
They get Up early-yes,
when still It's night,
And tear the pictures
from the dusty walls
And tumble furniture
from left to right.
The courier. (Lincoln, Neb.) 1894-1903, 1901-05-18

The pictures, too,
must find a newer place.
To hang them you must help
with your best grace,
And ike as not before
your work Is cone
A frame will fall on you and
knock in half your face.

When home you come at night
and want to rest
You find you're quickly
in the work impressed,
"Now, John, just pot
that stovepipe up," she says,
You 60 to work-well,
you can guess the rest!
From wobbly ladders
you are sure to fall
And as from underneath
you slowly crawl,
With sooty face and hands
and bruises blue,
ust see what you have done ;"
she'll wildly call.
you've simply spoiled that
carpet new and fine
And bent that stovepipe
till it's out of line
And then she'll sit her down
and weep a few,
While you bind up your wounds
with rags and Irvine.

And finally, as YEARLY
VOdf Oeooo n Nd

And finally, as YEARLY
you grope to bed
With skinned up hands and eyes
all trimmed with red,
You'll stumble near the bottom
Of the stairs
Upon pile Of things,
and nearly break your head.
AT last You'll get to bed
and fall asleep,
Bot through your dreams wild
scenes will wildly creep
And you will think you still
are cleaning house
And in your dreams You'll
sadly sigh and weep.
All, gentle spring, with
budding flowers and trees,
With aching backs and
stiffened joints and knees.
You are the eladdest time
OF al the year,
don't think-exeuse the slang
your pardon, please.
