Country Boy and Town Boy.
(Anderson Mail.)
Twenty-five years ago or more a lit
tle country boy went to town, one
day. He drove a lean raw-boned mule
hitched to a rickety old buggy. His
clothes w'ere coarse, of the kind that
country boys of that day and time
wore. As he was going along the
street he met a town boy who was
driving a fat horse hitched to a new

THE BLUE PENCIL.
(Two points of view.)
BY THE CONTRIBUTOR.
Fliou tyrant’s weapon, thou oppres
sor’s tool,
To work the malice of some brainless
fool!
How oft my dinner, meager aj the
best.
By thy fell stroke still more has been
compressed!
When 1 on eagle's wing have sought
to soar.
How oft thy cuts have brought me to
the floor!
What wit or wisdom, worded wond
rous well.
Has sunk to silence through thy fatal
spell!
How many sheets with work of merit
filled
Have by thy silly scrawling screed
been killed!
I hate thy blunted end of azure gall.
I hate the fate that holds me 'neath
thy thrall.
I hate the noodle that, directs thy
course
And stabs me, say compassion, sans
remorse.
Of all the woes with which this earth
is cursed
Thv pointless criticism Is the worst.
BY THE EDITOR.
Thou monarch’s scepter, thou magi
cian’s rod.
To raise me to the rank of demigod!
I never can forget the happy hour
When first I used thy strokes with
drastic power.
Thine is the task, with salutary pain,
To cure the vapors of an author’s
brain.
The turgid cranium thou canst com
press
And make its owner grudgingly con
fess
That seven scant’s his chapeau’s nor
mal size.
The skillful scribe who, waxing over-
wise,
With stuff Irrelevant would pad his
“space”
Thou well canst punish for hit
strength of faca
Thou wast intended in my hand to be
The stinging scourge of mediocrity.
“The pen Is mightier than the sword,"
but, then.
Thou, azure wand, art mightier than
the pen.
