What a boy can do.

These are some of the things a boy can do:
 He can shout so loud that the air turns blue; he can make all sounds of beast or bird, and thousand more they never heard. He can crow or cackle, chirp or cluck, till he fools the rooster, hen or duck he can mock the dog or lamb or COW, and the catherself can t beat his me ow. He has sounds that areruffled, striped or plain; he can thunder by like a railway train, stop at the station a breath, and then apply thesteam and offagain. He has all the powers in such com mand that he can turn right intoa full brass band with all of the in- struments ever played. and march away as a street parade. You can tell that boy is very i'll, if he is wide awake and keeping still; but earth would be dull old place if there were no boys.
