Our Troubles.

We all have our troubles in this
world, and some of us in the next.
None are exempt, there is no disabiL
ity clause in this respect. Printers
as well as other people have their
share. Sometimes it is a balky gaso
line engine. at other times a folder
that refuses to fold. We sometimes
r tempted to think the gasoline en-
CINE is an invention of the evil one.
1t can be as Angelic as an angel, and
at other times as devilish as the de-
vii. Its humors are are as varied as
The New Mexican winds. If your pa
per is late blame the printer. He can
stand it, but the fault lies with the
gasoline engine. Your paper vas late
Wednesday evening, you wanted it
and your thoughts would not look
well in print. 1t was the gasoline en-
CINE. Bear with us until we receive

A PoETEss.

Helen D. Snyder, of San Jose, Cal,
Writes Some Good Verse.
Miss Helen D. Snyder, who is now
attending the State Normal School
at San Jose. California, is rapidly
coming to the front as a writer of
verse. Miss Snyder is the daughter
of Mr.. Karl Snyder of this city, and
some Of her productions are most
creditable. We reproduce below two
of her shorter poems.
One Little Indian.
Manuelito lies on the housetop
Watching his mother and sister grind
corn;
Growing and shaking his pottery rat
Happiest baby that ever was born.
Out in the sun on the flat-roofed adobe
There he lies blinking his black lit
tie eyes,.
Watching the yellow meal fall from
the milestone
Thinks he can catch the bright stuff,
il he tries.
Manuelito rolls toward the grinders
Rolls In the trough with fine yellow
meal,
Gurgles till mother can reach him
and seize him.
Shake him and dust him-then how
he does squeal.
Then she must kiss him and call him
"BOnitO'
Pet him and toss him up into the air.
Indian or English, wee ManuelitO,
Mothers love babies the same every
where.
