By the Latter.

HumOr as II appears IN the sex

more enjoyable because II Is uncOn-
sciOus humor, writes J L Harbour
IN Christian EudeavoE World 4
teacher N a South Boston school one
day had grimy little urchin hand her
the following excuse written On the
fly leaf from some book:
Friend Teacher. exsCOOze absiusts
Of my sun yistiday. The lady IN the
tennymint below nine offered him
ten sents TO wheaI her Baby out vile
she attended the PhuneraI Of a lady
friend and as she don't often git out
or have much injoymint being sickly
let my sun ObIige her an at the same
Time urn ten sents 50 he was not
there yistiday afternoon PIeze ex-
scooze-
A teacher N one Of the suburbs Of
Boston read 70 her pupils Writers
Maud Muller and then she asked
the boys and girls to express IN writ
ing their opinion Of the poem Here
are two OF three Of the youthful criti-
cisms exactly as they were written:
1T Is silly and unnatural Ike most
poetry II rimes al right and makes
a fairly good enough piece to speak
in school but II is soft and the Judge
and the Muller girl would both have
wished they hadn't II they had mar
ried each other So this Is my opinion
OF the poem
Another boy expressed his opinion
with equal fearlessuess and self-cOu-
6dence=
The poem has some good points
It shows that the judge had good nan
ners for he said Thanks when Maud
handed him the water and so teaches
/ pOEueness- The poem goes On and
shows that many things might Of been
that amt IN this world, but II don't
prove that folks would Of been any
better OF If things had turned cut the
I other way Al things considered, II is
a fairly good poem and It does credit
70 Ar- Whittier I ant much stuck
On any kind Of poetry
A third criticism was as follows:
'The piece Is vel written but too
I sOIum- I would Of put some snap into
II BY having the judge eIope with
7 Aaude- and her father, the farmer,
come ripping after them with q pitch
Y fork and a dog or two OF something
I Of that sort 20 make the poem more
Y lively. The poem is weak IN spots
and one Of them is where Il makes out
7 that the Judge wishes that the vine IN
I his glass was water. This seems to ne
20 be unnatural III a Judge If I had
wrote the poem I would Of made II
more true 70 life IN a good many Re-
Z speCts, but I suppose that the author
I done the best he could
It Is hardly necessary to say that
7 these criticisms were By boys A brief
I criticism By d girl was as follows
Il think the poem real sweet and
i nice But II would suft ne better II
I Maud had married the JUDGE II they
were IN love with eacE other I think
I II dreadful to NARY fer anything but
I love and think the poem teaches u
I to always nary for love II we would
be On the safe side Ike the way
the poem rhymes, but think Maud
appears pEettier baref0oted N the
+ poem than she would IN real Iffs- I
don't think women show to adTau-

w HEN sAsY WRITES A LETTER.

When baby writes a letter to her Daddy
far away,
The OCCASIONS most important, for she
has SO much to say.
She sits up to the table, as grOwn-up folks
all do,
And then pile of paper all around her we
must strew.
With Grandma's golden spectacles safe
perched upon her Iiose
She dips her. pen into the ink, then straight
to work she goes,
And the onslaught fierce that follows
would FIJI you with dismay-
When baby writes a letter to her Daddy
far away.
Baby sends her love to Daddy and hopes
that he is we'll
Is the sentence Baby first indites-her
methods / must tell
For the sweet and simple message that eS-
presses Babys love
Is a dot and dash and big ink-splash be-
low and just above
She perforates the paper with many tiny
pricks,
And plays a tattoo on her chair with sun.
dry little kicks,
And all the floor is scattered Ger with
fragments of the fray
To tell us Baby's writing to her Daddy far
away.
The letter is long one, for scores Of
sheets are used,
And every one bears witness to the way
it's been abused
A page for every word she takes, she
quite ignores the lines,
While each one as it's written to oblivion
she consigns;
Then proudly for an envelope Miss Baby
now will call
And she fills it full of paper, with no
writing on at all.
The address is so illegible, l much regret
to say,
It's doubtful if twill ever reach dear
Daddy far away.

Home Companion.

Robbie and ths Autoroblls.

Robbie had never before been In
an automobile. He is very small
and serious-eyed youngster, just emerg
ing from babyhood; and an autOmo
bile is not inherently any more novel
or wonderful to him than an elevated
train or a surface car But the mild
excitement and apparent interest in
the vehicle shown by his mother and
his aunt, to whom the experience was
also new, communicated itself to Rob.

A Long Eeenuss a single Ito.

Miss Larissa Shaler Of Lyme, is 1Ol
years and two months old. She was
born in the town of IIaddam, Conn,
and resided in her birthplace 100 years
and six months. Last March she ac'
cepted the invitation of her niece. Mrs,
Henry b. Sisson, Of Lyme, to live with
her.
Her intellect is apparently as clear
to-day as ever. Her health is good and
for exercise she walks up and down
stairs and into the yard surrounding
her home.
Miss Shaler decided to go through
life without a partner, and she attrib-
utes her extreme age to the fact that
she never married. New York Sun.

APPLE PICKING TIME.

Long in apple-pickin' time there is some.
thin bout the weather
That'n set your spirits dancin' till they're
lighter than feather;
You can hear it in the music o. the neigh
borin' rooster's call,
You can see it in the squirrel carryin' nuts
along the wall;
An the rustic,
An the hustle,
An the hurryin' in o. crops,
An the weedin',
An the seedin',
An the dryin' o. the hops;
There's busy feelin' in the air that sets
your soul arime
In the hearty, healthy workin' days o ap-
ple'piclan' time
When the crib is full O. corn an the oat
bin runnin' over,
An the crickets finish chirpin' in the
straw stack an the clover,
Then the echo on the mountain sends
your voice a-callin' back,
An you hear the far-off rumblin' o The
freight train on the track;
An the lowin'
In the mowin'
Where you turned the cows to browse,
An the hurry,
An the furry.
An the bankin up the house;
An you'll laugh at wind an weather
when the SHOWS driftin' in
If the mows are full O. fodder an there's
apples in the bin.
Every critter is a-stir with the news o.
changin' weather.
You can hear the wild goose honk as he
calls his flock together.
An the hounds are on the mountain an
the woodchucks in his lair,
An the sqirrel fills his cellar in the hol-
low hemlock there;
An the singin',
An the ringing,
o. the axes on the hall
Gettin' ready.
Workin' steady
All the empty bins to fill;
An when youth has crept behind you an
your life is past its prime,
You will feel your boyhood comm back in
apple-pickin' time.

The Kinc,s pernuIsltes.

The cddest Of the King Of England's
privileges is the right he has to the
head of every whale caught on the
coasts Of his kingdom. There are
many perquisites Of the Grown which
are not so rare as whales in England.
The King is entitled to every sturgeon
brought to land in the United King
dom. One of them, caught in the
Thames, was on the table at Queen
Victoria's wedding banquet. The King
should receive, too, every year from
divers persons, tablecloth worth three
shillings, two white doves, two white

seed, horse and a halter, a pair OF
scarlet hose, n currycomb, a pair OF
