The Thoughts of Youth.
A small boy was hoeing corn iu
a sterile field by the roadside, when
a passer-by stopped and said:
“’Pears to me your corn is rather
small.”
“Certainly,” said the boy; “it’s
dwarf corn.”
But it looks yaller. ”
“Certainly; we planted the yaller
kind. ’ ’
“But it looks as if you wouldn’t
get more than half a crop.”
“Of course not; we planted it on
halves.” Everybody's Magazine.
