Time was when the little toy dog was new, And the soldier was passing fair; -- That was the time when our little Boy Blue Kissed them and put them there. "Now, don't you go till I come," he said; "And don't you make any noise!" So toddling off to his trundle-bed He dreamt of the pretty toys. And as he was dreaming, an angel song Awakened our Little Boy Blue,-- Oh, the years are many, the years are long, But the little toy friends are true! Aye faithful to Little Boy Biue they stand, Each in the same old place,-- Awaiting the touch of a little hand, The smile of a little face. And they wonder, as waiting these long years through In the dust of that little chair, What has become of our Little Boy Blue Since he kissed them and put them there, --Eugene Field.

SWITHUN'S DAY According to legend, Monday's rain should guarantee forty days more such precipitation. For that was St. Swithun's Day and this doggerel verse is familiar to all: St. Swithun's Day if thou dost rain For forty days it will remain; St. Swithin"s daty if thou be fair For forty days 'twill rain na mair.
