Dorothy and Davie Dear and
Mary Elizabeth and Billy Brown
all went to the circus.
They had wonderful time
Davies eyes were still bullying
when bedtime came, SO that he
found it very hard to go to sleep
And when at last the sand man
caught him, and the white lids hid
the blueness of his eyes, Davie
dreamed of roaring lions and angry
tigers, gaily painted clowns cavort-
ing on the backs of most enormous
elephants; short-skirted beautiful
ladies who danced on their toes on
the backs of handsome white gal
Looping horses, and chattering lit
tie monkeys that stretched their
their funny little hand-claws
through the bars.
Dorothy dreamed, too. In the
middle of the night nurse Nellie
heard a cry. She ran into Dorothys
bedroom, and that young lady was
wildly waving her arms and utter
ing strange noises. Nurse Nellie
touched her shoulder, and Dorothy
walked up with a start.
II dreamed l was trained seal

But to get back to my story. In
the morning the children saw the
parade. They came to Newark
bright and early, with their par
ents. Davie and Billy were de-
lighted with everything they saw.

Davie and a blue one to Billy.
Davie said he'd rather have his
balloon on a string than on stick,
and while he was trying TO tie the
string fast after the stick had been
removed the balloon got away ana

after it in fascinated horror.

regard of grammar; you'll never
get your balloon any. any more
Never mind, son, there are more
balloons in the world" said father
Dear cheerfully, and when the bal
loon man came along he bought
another one for Davie, cautioning
him to hold fast to this one.
II won't even try to take the
stick off of this one," cried Davie,
happily.
And then, far off could be heard
the sound of band music, the Pc
culiar kind of band music that only
circuses have. Everybody leaned
forward, crying: Here they come!

and Mary Elizabeth clutched Doro-

from excitement. Fat little Billy
spun around on one heel by way
of revealing his happiness. Davie
held tightly to his new balloon and
just gazed, fairly pop-eyed.
How they admired the beautiful,
bored ladies on horseback, and
gazed in awe at the closed wagons,
on which were colored pictures Of

mails in the world! How they

Then 1 should think the banks
would have been f1shed out by this
time?"
mot a bit of it. There's as many
fish there now as there ever were. You
might catch a million tons of fish
year off the banks, and there'd be
millions of tons to catch the next year.
The ocean is a mighty big storehouse
of food, lad. Why, some kinds of fish
multiply so fast that the good Lord
only knows where they come FROM"
You mean those that swim in
shoals?"
Yes, like the herring, menhaden
are so plentiful that farmers use them
as fertilizers to enrich their land.
Seine nets are generally employed in
catching these smaller fish; the big
fellows we are going after are caught
on trawling lines"
Captain Barlow now called the crew
together and assigned them to certain
duties to be performed during the
voyage. He then asked them to select
their dory mates, and when this was
done appointed a dory to each crew of
two fishermen. These boats were If
teen feet in length, arranged in piles
of three on each side of the deck. and
every boat was furnished with tho
necessary trawhng lines, coiled in
tubs.
Trawling is practised in the follow
ing manner On arriving at the
fishing grounds the dories, each
manned by two men, put out from
the smack and take positions about
half a mile apart. Then a keg is
thrown overheard with an anchor at

Billy Blob

Billy Blob was fat, chubby, little
boy of eight years. His parents lived
in the finest house on Shady street,
and had many servants.
Yet, In spite of everything, Billy
Blob was not happy. AS is the
trouble with most little boys of eight
washed and dressed in nice blouses
and trousers, for they cannot play
in the dirt.
Billy had been in the kitchen and
watched how Nanny, the cook,
would give food to beggars. These
beggars, so Billy thought, must 'be
very happy. for they did not look, as
though they had to be washed and
dressed up every day.
1t finally occurred to Billy that the
only way out of his troubles was to
run away and be a tramp. That
very night he started on his way.
Pretty soon it began to grow SO dark
that Billy became afraid, but the
thought that he was a tramp now re-
minded him of the fact that tramps
were not supposed to be afraid of
anything.
AS the suburb In which he lived
was not very large place, he soon
came to the open fields, and, being
NGI5f very tlTtu, nc OcOiucu W il0
down and rest, but the first thing he
knew he was fast asleep.
He was awakened by peculiar
sound, and saw not far off a large
COW. -+'
Hey there, Brindle." came a cry,
and running towards him came a
boy who wanted to get the COW out
of the way of a carriage which was
coming down the road, and In the
carriage was Billy's father.
After telling his anxious father
why he had run away, he was taken
home, where large dish of dough-
nuts and bowl of milk awaited
him.
Ever after this Billy Blob decided
he'd much rather be washed and
dressed nicely than be a tramp.

Good morning, merry sunshine,
How did you wake so soon?
You scared the little stars away
And shined away the moon.
I saw you go to sleep last night
Before I ceased my playing;
How did you get way over there,
And where have you been stayingf
1T never go to sleep, dear child.

The little children of the East,
Who rise and watch for me.
IT wake up all the birds and bees
And flowers on my way:
I wake up all the children, too,
And tell them IL is day."
Many thanks to you, Mrs. j. I am
sure the reader that requested the
