FATHER calls me William, sister calls mc Will, .
1 Mothet calls me Willie, but the fellers call me BHL
Eighty glad I ain't a girl ruthei be a boy
Without them sashes, curls an' things that's worn by Fauntleroyl
Love to chawnk green apples an' go swimmin' in the lake '
Hate to take the castor He they give for belly ache!
'Most all the time, the whole year round, they ain't no flies on me,
But jest 'fore Christmas I'm as good as I kin be I
Got a feller dog named Sport, sick him on the cat;
First thing she knows she doesn't know where she's att
Got a cupper sled, an when us kids go out to slide
'Long comes the grocery cart, an' we all hook a nde I
But sometimes when the groceryman is worried an'
cross
He reaches at us with his whip an' larrups up his
hoss,
An' then I lafl an' holler, "Oh, ye never teched me!"
, But jest 'fore Christmas I'm as good as I kin be.
Granmar says she hopes that when 1 git to be a man
I'll be a missionarer like her eldest brother Dan,
As was et up by cannibals that lives on Ceylon's
isle, ' .
Where every prospect pleases an' only man is vile.
' But granmar she has never been to see a wild west
show .
Mor read the life of Daniel Boone or else I guess she'd know
That Buff'lo Bill an' cowboys is good enough for me! ,
But jest 'fore Christmas I'm as good as I kin be I
An' then old Sport he hanfp around as solemn-like an' still;
His eyes they seem a-sayin , "What's the mattei, little Bill?"
The old cat sneaks down off her perch an' wonders what's become
Of them two enemies of hern .that use to make things hum I
But I'm so polite an' 'ten' so earnestly to biz ,
That mother says to father, "How improved our Willie isl"
But father, havin' been a boy himself, suspicions me
When jest 'fore Christmas I'm as good as I kin be!
For Christmas, with its lots and lots of candy, cakes and toys.
Was made, they say, for proper kids and not for naughty boys;
So wash yer face an' brush yer hair an' mind your p's an' q's.
An' don't bust out yer pantaloons, an' don't wear out yei shoes;
Say "yessum" to the ladies an' "yessur" to the men.
An' when there's company don't pass your plate for pie again,
But, thinkin' of the things yer'd like to see upon that tree,
Jest 'fore Christmas be as good as yer kin be!

BRAILE'S BIG WELL
It Would Have Worked Wonders Only
It Was Nevar Dug,
Perhaps the must Idlatlc of all the
many Idiotic schemes with wblcb Brit
ons bave been enamored In days gone
by was that wblcb was known at the
time as Braiie's big well. M. Bralle
was a Belgian engineer, residing tem
porarily lu England, who, in 1848, ap
proached the then prime minister
(Lord John Russell) witb a scheme for
sinking a huge shaft, a mile In diameter
and twenty miles In depth, that should
tap tbe earth's Internal beat and there
by render England Independent of ber
coal supply. when this gave out.
Lord Russell, always rather attract
ed by visionary projects, attentively
considered tbe scheme and caused
plans and estimates to be drawn up.
Tbe first difficulty was tbe Inrush of
water, wblcb would have been certain
to occur sooner or later. This It was
proposed to keep under by pumping,
caissons being used for the purpose of
further excavation, while the finished
portion of the shaft wns to be rendered
watertight by a "Jacket" of granite
set In Portland cement.
Mud as tbe scheme was, It found
plenty of advocates, and a provisional
bill bad been, it was said, actually
drafted, when the overthrow of the
government on the franchise question
was announced, and tbe whole busi
ness wiih thenceforth consigned to
a well merited oblivion. i'earson s

VILLAGE LIFE IN EGYPT.
Crude Mud Houses, the Roofs of
Which Are Garbage Dump.
Egyptian village life is quaint and In
teresting, says the Wide World Maga
zine. Tbe bouses ure crude, one storied
structures of sun bnked mud, with pos
sibly a couple of tiny squnre boles cut
In the wall for ventilation.
Each home consists of a single room,
absolutely devoid of furniture, one or
two drinking jars and cooking utensils
being usually the only articles to be
seen. Tbe roofs of these bovels are
thatched with cornstalks, and for some
unaccountable reason all the house
hold rubbish is dumped on the roof I
For this , purpose a ladder may fre
quently be seen reclining against the
side of tbe house. From a distance a
Tillage Is apt to look tike an immense
rubbish heap. These orlmitlve erec
tions are inhabited solely by tbe fella
bin, as Egyptian peasants are called.
In some of tbe Arab villages tbe ar
rangements for sleeping are even more
unconventional. Huge cuplike struc
tures made of mud are built out In the
open, away from the bouses, and into
these the babies are frequently placed
during the day, and often tbe entire
family sleep in them at night Tbe idea
is to eRcape the numerous snakes and
scorpions wbicb abound during the
great heat of tbe summer. .

The Naval Court Waa Polite With the

Courts inartliil are not Infrequently
held on battleships io tbe Chariestown
navy yard. Sometimes a Bailor will
send for Boston attorney to defend
him, although this tendency Is discour
aged by tbe officers. Most attorneys
know they bave no absolute right to
practice In a naval court and can do
so only by permission of the court, but
occasionally a lawyer goes aboard who
does not realize this fact
A sailor who was cburged with gam
bling had retained nn attorney to get
bim oft. This attorney, who bud never
bad sucb a case before, went briskly
Into the ofliiers' wardrobe, where the
court was sitting and without waitlug
on . cereinouy began to address the
court in a blustering manner.
"Just a minute," Interrupted the pre
siding officer. "Who are you?" .
"I am Mr. Rudolpb gmithers," tbe at
torney replied, "and I am a member of
the Massachusetts bar."
"Oh. you are Mr. Smlthers, are your
continued the officer. "Then you are
the man whom tbe orderly wants to
see." : He called tbe orderly.
VWliat does the orderly wnut of me?"
asked the attorney In n superior tone.

Java's Valley of Death, Where Lifa
Cannot Exist.
The Valley of Death U on tbe Island
of Java. It is the most remarkable
natural example of nn atmosphere
loaded with carbonic acid gas In ex
istence. It has never been fully ex
plored because of the danger of re
maining more than a few moments In
Its poisonous atmosphere.
Approached through nn opening be
tween the hills, it Is seen to be an oval
shaped valley about half n mile across.
It Is about thirty-five feet deep. The hot
torn is hard and sandy, without vegeta
tion and strewn with large stones. Tbe
surface is covered witb the bones of
animals, birds and human beings.
Explorers seldom venture beyond the
borders, though the deadly air does not
immediately affect human beings. Tills
Is because tbe carbonic uekl gas, being
heavier than tbe atmosphere, settles to
tbe bottom or the valley. Dogs and
fowls thrown Into It fall senseless In
stantly and die In a few minutes. No
cruters or fissures are visible or the
floor of this vulley, and It is thought
that the openings are near the base of
the hills. ICxchauge. .
