"THE CKAII AND HIS KO.V
N A very early day tlicro lived a
crab, 8omo people sny "craw
fish," who had becoino morbid
nnd morose and sullen mill tiisBni
lsfled with his lot. Ever since Ills
tlmo when a person shows up wltli
his attributes, ho Is called "crab
bed." That Is how the iinino ot
Htnrtml. but this Isn't generally
known, though. Now, this crab
has n son Just of that oko when
n hoy's head beKlns to grow faster
than his feet. Ho wasn't any worst)
than the ordinary boy, but his
father thought ho ought to act like
n man nnd bo ablo to anticipate
whatever he wanted done.
This boy couldn't toll to save his
neck when tint lawn needed mowing
or when tho furnace needed fixing
or the ashes carried out of tho col
lar. These things Irritated tho old
crab very much and he was con
tinually Jawing the boy, nnd when
tho boy's mother undertook to take
his part he Jawed her. It made the
household very unpleasant.
About this tlmo thn boy begnn
to he choice In tho selection of his
neckties ami he perfumed his hand
kerchief nnd had his hair tut pom
padour. This made tho old crab
worsu than over. Hnrtlly a meal
went by that tho old man didn't
let out on thu boy. This was em
barrassing, especially when there
was company.
One day the boy's grandmother
raniu to make a visit. As Is nearly
always tho case, the grandmo"icr
thought a great deal of the hoy, nnd
the hoy thought n heap of his
grandmother. Whenever you find
it any different from that there Is
always soniathlug radically wrong
with thu boy or with thu grand
mother. At tho first meal tho old crab
criticised the hoy In n menu, sar
castic way, because hu didn't rank
mining tho highest In his class -irlUclsed
him hccaiiBc ho was tardy
a few times. "Ho never was tartly
h if.'." Everybody kept still.
Tim next meal It was tho samo thing.
y .v was tho boy's haircut nnd his
necktie. Every meal it was some
thing, and If the boy undertook
to make any kind of a defense, you
would hnve thought the old crab
was going to kill him. The grand
mother kept unlet all these times,
hut It was noticed that during these
Jaw-fests sometimes her falsi) teetii
would come together like a gopher
trap In action. After tho old lady
had been there about a week, one
meal old Mr. Crab, not having any
thing new to harp on, began to
rail nt tho youngster because with
all tho advantages of education and
money hu had spent on him ho still
traveled backwards everywhere he
went. Tills so amazed thu yout.i
that before hu had tlmo to think
he said: "Why, dad, you never net
any other example before mo." Of
course tills was on thu verge of be
ing sassy, and tho old man almost
had a fit. Ho grabbed the boy by
tho neck of his sweater with one
hand and readied for a heavy razor

.Many pcoplo In the woods do not
ever notice the blazes on the trees,

Nor would they discover footprints

pays to know how to fill your

how rapidly to walk In order to

choose the site, away from swamps

be taken to prevent thu spread of

And took another one.
As I stood so closely by his side,
And heard him softly say
The precious words, "My own fair

Happy wo will over he."
The solemn words I hear ngaln:
"I pronounce you man nnd wife,
'I o love each other to the end
or nils but natural life."
With trombllng lips wo took the vows,
And breathed them soft nnd low:
"We will bo true as wo are now,
As through the world wo go."

An emblem of truth nn.i im,..
And music flouting soft and low".
Like the burps that sound above.
And the bridal veil like a snowy cloud
Moating about my form;
How could 1 dreniu It was a shroud.

My world was then an "Eden,"

How could I see the demon
That turned It nil to gloom.

And the brow that wore tho flowers
