VERSE OF TODAY
THRENODY.

I made a slow lament for you, lost magic
OF schoolboy love and dreams in shadoWed
places,
Where passed in visible parade, the tragic
Desires of vanished gods and womens faces.
On voins beneath long, undisputed
New England orchards sombred by the spirit
OF endless autumn. ] awoke the muted
Strings of your lament, but none could hear 1t,
Except, perhaps one passerby, who skrted
The upland fields in that avoided spot;
And marveling at the music in deserted
Orchards, hurried on, and soon forgot.

UNCLE WIGGILY AND KITTIE'S
CUSTARD.
BY Howard B. Garis.

Where are you going, kittie
kat?" asked Uncle Wiggily one
morning, as he saw tho little pus-
sy girl daintily picking her way
past his hollow stump bungalow
For it had rained during the
night, and there were little pud-
dies of water beside the path
kittie Kat did not want to step
in any of these puddles of water
and get her paws wet. where
are you going, kittie?" asked
Uncle Wiggily.

wered kittie with a polite little
new, and then she tried to make
her nose twinkle like Uncle Wig
gily's pink one. But she couldn't,
because her nose was black.

with, or to make a new dress
for your doll?" asked the bunny
gentleman.
"Oh, ho" laughed Kittie. "As

eggs, or yet make a dolls dress

well, was only joking" ex-
planned the rabbit uncle. "But If
you don't mind. Kittie, I'll wall;
along with you. And you might
tell me what you are going to
do with the eggs. That is. If it
isn't secret" added Uncle Wig
gily.
"Oh, 1t isn't any secret" mewed
Kitty. I'm just going to make a
custard with the eggs when ]

and Alice Whibblewobble, the
duck girls, over to my house this
afternoon for tea, and ] want to

said Uncle Wiggily, as Kittit
started home, with the bantam
eggs IN grass basket. which
Mrs. Cutie had let her take.
I'm be careful" mewed Kittie
but just then she stumbled, and
down she fell.
"Oh, dearl" cried the little pus

custard eggs"

Uncle Wiggily. "I'l! put the crack.
ed egg in my tall silk hat and
carry it for you. Now you be worry
careful of the others"
II will" promised Kittie. She
walked along, carrying the grass

and the bunny gentleman put the
the cracked bantam's egg in nj,

course, a little of the white and

shell and down on his pink nose

"Oh, dearu" mewed Kittie
another egg is cracked, fear
1t was only too true. An egg
was cracked.
"Never mind" spoke Unclt
Wiggily. It'll put that cracked egg
in my hat also, and you must
be more careful of the others. .
So he put the second cracked egg
in his hat, and more white and
yellow ran down on his pink nose
but he didn't mind that, for he
was helping Kittie. The little
pussy girl hurried along and, all
of sudden. she stumbled again
and fell.

the bunny.
"Ye-ye-yes. I'm afraid so,'
mewed Klttie.
Truly enough third egg was
broken.
Never mind" said the bunny.
I'll put that In my hat also"
And he did. telling Kittie TO be
more careful. Still the white and
yellow ran down Uncle Wiggily's
pink nose from the broken eggs
in his hat, but he didn't mind
that as he was helping Kittie.
kittie Kat walked along some
more and, all OF sudden, she
cried:
II know what ] can do! can
put the eggs in the soft fur on
my back, and then. if I stumble
and fall, they won't break"
"A good idea" declared the
bunny gentleman. SO Kittie took
the remainder of the eggs from,
the grass basket and placed them
in the fur of her back, Uncle Wig
gily helping. And the next time
Kittie stumbled and fell not
an egg was cracked.
So she and Uncle wiggiIy
reached her house and taking the
cracked eggs from the bunny's
hat, and the uncracked ones from,
the fur on her back, Kittie made
four dear little custards, one for
Lulu, one for Alice, one for her
self and one for Uncle Wiggilv,
And the bunny ate his custard
after he had washed the whites
and yellows Of the eggs off his
pink nose. So everything came out
all right.

Chicago, June 2S.-Wheat aver

$1.14s to $1.15. Corn lost Ac to
Nc to sc. oats &c to &c and pro-
visions sc to 10c to 12lac.
Although traders recognized that
showers which were of widespread
extent, came too late to be of much
benefit to wheat except in the
spring crop region, the moisture
relief given to the growing corn
was so apparent as to promote
bearish sentiment regarding all
grain. Meanwhile the action of
the Liverpool market suggesting
that for the time being foreigners
were Indifferent as to ownership of
wheat was emphasized by gossip
current that some exporters had
cable requests to cancel contracts
for August shipment.
Corn and oats were eased by the
improved weather for growing
crops. Active buying of July corn
and selling of September was a fea-
ture.
Lower quotations on hogs weak
