This Is a beautiful sun shiny day,
and you can hear the merry whistle of
the pIow boy on every side, satisfied
with his lot. He seems to think farm
ing is the beet calling on earth, which
it is. He goes to work at early morn
and works until the setting sun
hides itself behind the Western hills,
and then goes home with q cheer
full heart and feels satisfied that he
has done his duty. Then he can lay
his head on his pillow and sleep peace
fully which none OF our city boys can
enjoy. And oh! just think for q mo-
ment what o pleasure it is for our coun.
try girls and boys to gather the beau
tiful flowers, and If it's not convenient
for the boys to help gather them the
girls will fix up q nice box and send to
them. But now, dear readers, don't
think that ] have been receiving flowers
from the maidens, but my bachelor
friend received a beautiful box of ylo-
let's not q great while since, and surely
he was the happiest boy Il will call
him by that name il he Is q bachelor)
ON earth. And 1 think IL that young
lady knew how fondly he cares for them
she would send another nice box i'm.
mediately.
