Tho Little Tot.

J. Adam Bede. in the New Republic.
Here's to the little woman! She's only
a little tot. Three or four ,mmers have
touched her lips with wisdom and left
the sunshine in her clustering hair. Her
spirits are as blithe and buoyant as a bird,
her thoughts as light and airy as the sky
blown thistle down. She clings to your
hand in the morning and is eager for
your home coming when the shadows fall,
being ofttimes found peering through the
handle of the gate where her greeting is
INGENIOUS and sincere. She is the new
With her toys and her playhouse she is
her to your bosom while she waits. Yet
a few years and other haunts shall know
her and other hearts be hers: and then.
too, other cares may come. But though
the nome nest has been long deserted and
many years have flown she is still--to YOU
the little burst of sunshine and an I'M
broken package of delight while her baby
words with beveled edges catch the ear.
and though YOU are a century old yonr
heart is 100 years young. and then you
understand Him who said, Suffer little
children to come unto Me and forbid them
not" for the best thing On earth is the
little rot.

the following interview;

more than pleased to note the many
Improvements made in Dolores and
this section since left here fifteen
years ago. 1t might seem to some that
greater strides should have been made.
yet to me it seems that wonders have
been accomplished. You are still handi-
capped for railroad facilities and if one
may Judge by what the d. & R. G. has
done In the past fifteen years. always
will be unless lightning should strike
and another road enter this section.
Cement sidewalks, water system.
brick and stone buildings and real
school house, together with your
graded streets and numerous neat resi-
dences have transformed Dolores into
a town Of which the inhabitants may
well be proud. But you are about
fifty years behind the times in one
thing and will continue to be until you
quite letting the cows run at large
upon your streets.
1T is indeed a pleasure to me, "
said Mr.. Dewitt, ito greet old friends,
note your many improvements and
realize that the future contains more
for this section than has been brought
out in the past. Your agricultural and
stock raising industries are limited
only by the efforts of those engaged
therein, and hope to return sometime
and see greater strides than have
witnessed on this visit"
