Gbe minetp anb mine Rake a 1bolibaQ NE day when the sky was that glorious blue that Tennyson Likens to the Mayhue, we decided to take a trip to the Black- forest, facetiously named the Coal grove. We had consulted our Cal- lender, and found a forecast of Fairweather, and having despatched our Lackey to the Mayor for a Grant to pass the day in his Parks, our leader said, L'Allin line, and we set out, our Piper going ahead, that the way might be made pleasant, and our hearts light with music. The Baker followed with Bacon and other substantials to be prepared when our Smyth had set up the camp stove. Having heard of a great Dun bear in the neighborhood, we sent forward our lighter, the Sullivan of the band, accompanied by a Warner to guard us from the dangers of the forest. Our path led us by the River, where the banks were strewn with sweet Williams, while the VVoods were White with many a May Blossom. When the first shadows of evening warned us to be R. E. Turners, we set out for home, beguiling the way with stories of the bravery of Hermann and the sea fights of Blake, and selections from the drama of Schiller and the poetry of Burns. The memory of such a delightful day was so inspiring that some of the light-hearted members were inclined to Crow all the way home, of the successes of The Ninety and Nine. And it was decided that the scribe should put the account in the records of our class, Soher fame should live forever.

Extracts PATIENT: I want this tooth pulled, I couldn't sleep with it last night. DR. LIKENS Cconsoling as he hung up the forcepsj: I don't think you will sleep with it to-night. 75
