JUST SO.

BY M. E.

A young calf saw one day a circus pass, And cried at once, "Oh, I must join that show; Just as they run to see the elephant; The folks would run to look at me, I know." "You're quite mistaken," said a sheep; "for while In this great land the elephants are few— And therefore wonders are—the world, my dear, Has seen a multitude of calves like you."

BIG FOURTH THIS TIME. "Oh, look! what's coming with Pop! George Washington! won't we have a Fourth of July this time!"

A TROUBLED DREAM.
