TELL HER.

You can burn all the furniture. smash
up the house,
You can tear down the roof that's
above her;
A woman will stand for II cufet az
mouse
So long as you tell her you love her.
You can spend her inheritance. bIscken
her eye,
You can leave her. ill-treat her, Or
shove her;
She'll faithfully suffer your acts ia
you die,
So long as you tell her YOU love hs1l
You may tenderly nurse her and az
things endure.
Her weakness carefully cover.
But she'll never believe your Affection
is sure
Unless you inform her you love her.
You may purchase the gems she has
! wanted through life.
Persistently round her may hover.
But things such as these all mean
naught to your wife
Ii you don't ten her, toe. that you

Boy Natures Chanuina.

The rapid growth of the city in the
last twenty years seems to have
wrought a change in the nature of the
boy, said an observing police captain
the other day When / was a lad,
over in Williams burg. we used to play
all sorts of games. Today, the only
game the boys in the city seem to play
is craps or pitch penny for cigarette
pictures.
twenty years ago gambling was I'M
known among boys. Today it seems to
be the only diversion the boys have.
We played prisoners base, duck-on-
the-rock, -tne-stick. Black Tom,
hide and seek. leap frog and other ac-
tive games. Marbles. tops and kites,
each had their season. Black Tom I
suppose, was an outcropping of the
Civil war. based on the escape of slaves
to the North, but the other games my
father told me he also played when he
was a boy.
To-day you seldom see boys with
marbles, or tops or kites. at least not
like we used to have when every boy
built his eNvn. As for the other games.
they are almost a lost art to the city
boy, and It's all due to the building up
of the city. In those days we played
a the open lots.
THE only deviltry we used to get
mixed up in was provided by the sinok-
ing beam The dried seed pods of the
catalpa tree. I think. used to provide
us with surreptitious amusement and
many smoker learned on them. In
my boyhood days these trees were
much more common than they are
