HOW A PA Pm IS MADE.
"Pray, how to a paper made V
Thu question to caay to ask.
But to answer it fully, my dear.
Were rather a difficult 4&k ;
And yet, in a bantering why,
As the whip-poor-will sings in the glade
I’ll venture a bit of a<ay
To tell how u paper to made.
An editor flits ut his desk,
And ponders the things that appear
To be clalraingthe thought# of the w orld,
Tilings solemn und comic and queer.
And when he htui hit on a scheme
He judges it well to parade.
He writes, and he writes, und lie writes,
And that to how a paper to mude,
A n editor nits at hit* desk,
And puzzles hto brain to tnuko out
••Telegruphlp," ho squabbled and mixed,
It is hard lo'tcll wliat It's about,
Exchanges are lying around,
While waiting dtopatchcn delayed,
He dips, and lie clips, and lie clips,
And tlial'fl bow u paper to made.
An editor out in the town.
In search of the tilings that are new—
The things that people have done,
Tlie tilings they're intending to do—
floes peering aipl prying about,
For items of tqaqy a grade;
He tramps, and i;e tramps, ami lie tninjpH,
And tliat’* I;o;y » paper |s njn<!i).
And all that tljoflp workers prepare,
Of every nnppeiyiibla dtplpe,
In sent to flip pyintpr, und fie
Procecdcth to stick it in type,
JIto lineH, nil respecting hto will,
hi slow-moyigg cplijmij.s parade-*
He stickfl, und lie sticks, anil he sticks,
And that'll liqw g paper Is made
In flliort, when tljo typo is *11 set,
And errors cleared up, more or less,
’Tis "looked ip a form," as they say,
Anil hurried u\yay to the presfl,
The pressman iirmuges l)to sheets,
His ink gjven the requisite single,
Tlien be print#, and ho prints, npd lie
print#,
And tjmt’K how a paper is made,
A Child's Heart,
Tho other day a curious old woman
having a bundle in Itor hand, and
walking with effort, sat, down on a
purhstone to rest. .She was curious
hocause her garments wore neat and
clean, though threadbaro, and curi-
ptts hccuuHo n entile crossed her wrin
kled fuco us children passed her. It
might have been this smilo that
attracted a group of little ones, tho
oldest about nino. They stood in a
row in front of tho old woman, say
ing never a word, but watohing her
face. The smilo brightened, linger
ed, and then suddenly fadotl away,
and a earner of her old calico apron
wont up to wipe away a tear. Then
the oldest child stepped forward and
asked:
"Atti you sorry beoause you haven’t
got any children.”
“I—I had children onco, but they
tire all d—dead 1” whispered the
Woman, a sob in her throat.
Ml’m awful sorry,” said tho little
girl, as her own chin quivored. “I’d
give you one of my brothors hero,
but you sco I haven't got but two,
find I doq’t bejipvo I’d like to sjw.ro
pne.”
"God bless yqn, ohild—bloss yon
forever 1” sobbed tho old woman, and
for a ful| rnjnoto her faoo was buried
i»i ber *pron.
I*Hut I’ll toll you what I’ll do,”
seriously continued tho child. "You
may kiss all oneo, and if little Bon
isn’t afraid you may kiss him four
tiinos, for ho’s just as Bweet as can
dy 1”
Pedestrians who saw threo well
dfessed children put their arms
around that strunge old woman’s
nock and kiss her vvoro greatly pus
zled. They didn’t know the hearts
of children, and thoy didn’t hear the
woman’s words as sho rose to go :
"Oh! ohildrcn, I’m only.a jtoor old
woman, behoving 1 had nothing to
live for, but yon’vo given me a light
er heart than 1 have had for ten
long years 1”
