New York Sun, and he is regarded as
such a rare one that they want to
keep him as long as they can. When
he registered the clerk assigned him
to Room 1912.
"Oh, | say, is there any method in
your handing me that number?' he
demanded. That's not popular
with Britishers, you know"
He smiled, and it dawned upon the
clerk that there was a war called by
that date. Later on the manager

Two Views Back East.
In the Country.

In the Country.
Adown the road run little swirls of
dust,
The dog pants in the shade, with
lolling tongue.
And from the fields in endless noisy
gust
The elacking of haryesters is
flung;
The house is darkened, and when
you go in
You tiptoe softly through the
shadowed hall;
The maiden aunt, who is extremely
thin.
Now seems about to vanish, specs
and all.
The fat hen meath the currant bush
retreats
And elucks ill-tempered comment
on the day.
The pigs their sundry grunts of joy
repeat
From the mud wallow whence they
will not stray;
The dinner bell rings holly, and the
men
Come home, all sweaty, red of
face. and say:
Il hate to go back to that field again;
The city must be nice and cool
today"

In the City.

The air is dancing up between the
walls.
The breezes like from an W
fans the street;
The peddlers with their %aggravat-
ing calls;
Your shoes grow tight and tighter
on you feet;
The fat men all grow %fatter, while
the lean
Grow leaner yet, and glare with
burning eye
Upon the dusty, scorching, burning
scene;
A blued-steel s%oullessness is in the
skies
Each oma dabs some powder on
her nose
And sadly says she knows she is
a fright;
The man who steps upon another's
toes
Within the street ear straight way
has a fight; -
And each and all of them, the cross
and hot, s,
Frets dolefully the while, and oft
will say:
I'm fairly baked, and getting worse!
Great Scott!
The country must be nice and cool
today"
