said the trees are here and have
been set out all right. / sent our
man for them and he brought
them home. !" But, when Harry
was bringing the empty wrap

friends that some scoundrel had
stolen his plants, and now he is

When tinkle, tinkle, goes our beli,

And Mother has 1 call
But when the BELL rings very loud
And no one can see.

Who's eotiie 10 visit me.

The Smith
Under the liofseless chestnut tree
The town GARAGE now stands.
Bill Smith, whe ruins the business,
Hath large and sinewy hahds,
And the muscles Of his 1bfaWny afiiis
Are strong enough--iiiy laiids.
The children coming hefie ffotii
school
Look in at the open door;
They like to see the !autosnlitf
Recline upon the floor
Beneath the car and gruntl "By gari
This carburetor's sore."'
Thanks, thanks to thee, my worth,
friend
For the lesson thou hast taught!
Next time l drive this old beehiv,
III try not TO be caught
Ten miles FROM town with the tires
run down
And the axle steel tinwtousht.
