235 e THE FRESH-AIR FUND. SOHNNIE, Janie, how they clatter Up and down the alley-ways! And the little footsteps patter Like the dancing tect of fays. All agog and full of wonder, Open eyes and checks aglow, Pretty, panting lips asunder— “Are J going?” “Can't us go?” Buttons burst through too much hurry, Shoe-strings broken, garters loose, Missing, secking in a flurry, Everything they want to use. Billy's torn hat is terrific; Not that Ze cares; in his joy, From Atlantic to Pacific, You'd not find a prouder boy. See the sisters and the brothers, Playmates, school-mates, all the crowd ; Kisses from the poor tired mothers, Goodbyes, laughter, voices loud ; Hearts so full of pride and glory, They have scarcely breath to say, A “This is just a fairy stor [F MR.

If you do, get out of that box and be quick about it. JOHN WANAMAKER is guilty, according to the Democratic press, not be~ cause he did anything wrong, but because he belongs to the church and superintends a Sunday-school. MB. THURMAN has a bad idea of John R. McLean's politics, intimating that his chief design is to beat the Democratic party. Now we, looking at it from our standpoint, consider that John R. must necessarily be a great and good man. THE WHIRLIGIG. HE CZAR drives the Jews out of his country, and does it with heartless cruelty. The Rothschilds have the chief purse of Europe, and refuse the czar the money he needs to go to war. When Germany, Aus- tria and Italy need money per- haps they can get it of the Roths- childs, Justice is blind, but in ‘one way or another every wrong is atoned a for sooner or later— ’S SARCASM. rect thetwronseibar OLp Mr. VALLERBY —* Dar goes Mose Jobnsing an’ his : Nat gal like two souls wif but a single thought.” sacrifices human life Pere Coony (bitterly) —'* Yeah, dat’s ‘bout right.

He generally begins dishonesty in the utmost confidence that he can repay the money he surreptitiously borrows. He may succeed, and so he ventures again. He ventures for his friends, or for himself, in the assurance of safety and out of confidence in the promises of others. He means well. He purposes nothing of a dishonorable nature. He has no avarice, but he needs money, But a thief is a thief. He is a thief when he first begins this abuse of the confidence reposed in him, just as much as when the discovery that he is a thief is made. The larger stealing that he has done to save himself and his friends is no worse than the i original stealing that cost him his self-respect. The law makes the definition none .
