A Story of a Pencil.

My name is Mr. Pencil. Would you like
to hear the story OF my life?
was once part OF large pine tree,
growing on the shores of Lake Winnipeg
in Canada For long while had wanted
TO 80 into the world of which had heard
a great deal from the leaves in autumn
when they left us and went sailing away
to see the sights OF the great cities.
one day my wish was granted Men
came with axes, cut me down and then
put me on sledges drawn by horses.

into many different things, but l am only
telling how part OF me came to be a
pencil
After l had gone through many differ.
ent machines, Mr., Lead came along and
they put him inside OF me, which was
very painful Then l was painted a pretty
green color and sent to a store
liked It here very much and the other
articles told me many interesting storie.

developed. Language is the expression of
thought by means of written or spoken
words.
The English word language comes from
the Latin form LLngua, meaning the tongue,
Many savage tribes, such as the North
American Indians, can carry on a CONVEX
sation without the use Of the tongue. This
is by signs or sign-language, as it is called.
All language, however, is really the ex-
preston of thought by means of signs.
Spoken words are signs made with the
voice. and written words are signs made
with the pen or pencil.
This world would have been altogether
different IL we had not had the power of
speech. What would all the explorers OF
long ago have done If they had come back
from their voyage and could not have ex-
pressed their luck or disappointment to
the world2
Language is never at a standstill 1t is
constantly changing little by little. 1t is
changing so slowly that we are not aware
of 1t, but IL we were to look at the form
OF language that our ancestors used It
would look as strange as that Of foreign
countries. Language is the most delicate
instrument which men use. A study of its
laws is a worthy occupation for the mind.

she looked like ball of silk with two big
black eyes shining out of it.
She had another friend, MARK, the
horse" When Mark would come out of
the stable she would run and bark at him
one day the big hay wagon came along
and the dog slipped under it and it went
over her crushing her hind legs.
James and Leland were very sorry, and
their mother said she would have to be
put out of her misery. but the boys begged
to save her so, their mother said, what
till your father comes home and he will
see about it."
But their father said the same, but the
boys begged so hard that their father took
her to the doctor.
In few weeks the dog came back in
the doctors car but without her hind legs
She was wagging her tail more than ever
The dog will have to lie on a cushion. But
once in a while she tries to follow the
boys.
One day a friend came to visit the
boys father and before he left he took
the dogs measure. In about a week there
came a package and when it was opened
they found a cart for the dog. 1t VS.
a cart with buckles, straps and rubber
tires on the wheels and cushioned seat,
but the dog didn't like it very well until
the boys showed her how to use It and
then she liked it as well as her own legs.

Buster,

BY Forrest Perrin, Aged Years, 1901
Charles Street, Omaha. Red Side.
When we lived in Peoria, Ill, woman
in our neighborhood gave US little kit
ten He was black and white.
We named him Buster Perrin. He seemed
to know his name for every time we called
him he came right away. He knew how
to play hide-and- go-seek, too. When we
played it he would get in little corner
and peek around to see II we were com
ing. If you took a string and dragged it
around he would follow 1t, and when you
Jerked it he would jump clear up in the
air. When you came to little corner he
would lie down until you came that way
again; he would jump out at the string
as II it were a mouse.
One morning when papa opened the door
to let Buster in the house he set a very
large rat down in front OF papa and lay
down beside it, just as much as TO say:
What do you think Of that?"
When we moved to Omaha we could not
bring Buster, SO we left him with one OF
the neighbors We miss him very much.

have found out that turtles have no
teeth. but their jaws are very sharp and
they are able to chew vegetable substances
or give a sharp bite.
There are four different kinds Of turtles
l know about, the land turtle, marsh
turtle, river turtle and marine turtle.
The land turtle Is found in southern
Europe and all over America They live a
long, long time, something like fifty or
seventy-five years. They move very
slowly, but can build a burrow In a short
time Their shell protects them from any
ordinary enemy except man and the boa
constructor. Man takes 1t home and roasts
1t and the boa-oonstrictor swallows II
whole, shell and all.
l had a land turtle once that was very
small and very lively, walking around
the room, and always settling
near an open fire IL 1t could. This
one only lived a few months. 1t ate bread
and milk, drinking the milk by scooping

pig wouldn't have it. so we brought 1t to
the house and put it in basket to keep
warm.
We then fed 1t warm milk with a spoon.
This we had to keep up for some time.
She soon got so she could jump out of the
basket. She became so troublesome in the
house that we had to put her out doors in
the day time. In order to do this we kept
a switch beside the door She would stand
at the door and go, "wee-wee-wee." She
grew quite fast and soon got large. as
pigs do. still our men folks were too busy
to make her a pen, so mamma tied her up.
one day some ladies came to call on
mamma. She went into the room and
seated them. AS it took all Of the rockers
to do this she sat down in a dining room
chair. After putting on her best manners
and looks and feeling herself quite COM
Portable in bounded Miss Sally, for that
was what we called the pig, and jumped
under mammals chair and wnooped her
right out on the floor. Chair and all came
down on Miss Sally and she went out lots
faster than she came in, saying "wee-wee-
Wee" You don't know how mamma felt
then before all the stylish ladies.
Sally went out the back door and dashed
under a sheet mamma had spread on the
grass to bleach. She got all rolled up in
IT and kept rolling down the driveway.
AS that was a very good place to whip her
we gave her a little switching. Then we
unwrapped her and took her to the house
and gave her a trough of milk
We heard afterward that the ladies said
that they had been to a sideshow,
And Sally got so big and fat that she
has been butchered and eaten, but not
forgotten.
