BrrrERFuEs.-There are various kinds Of butT
terfies in this blue rooted world OF ours. When
we were children, We chased the real aruclci
through fields Of clover, and afternoons Of sun y
shine, and got licked in the evening for tearing our
trowsers into shorts. At eighteen or twenty, we
chase butterflies made OF blue satin trocks and
black velvet eyes which by the way, are the
/ Ill ~ A
chase one called glory, sfiarry little creature
that s commonly found in the vicinity Of hilua
.raining -, grave yards and short lived people Al
forty the tables ere turned and ono commences
chasing us, white withered thing called death,
which by the way, is the most powerful and feet
of al the buttcrfes-for though you were 81
Sampson he can throw you-and though you
were mounted on thunderbolt he can overtskeI
you. By the way there is one very sngulaEtratt
about this little creatures taste that is very hafdE
to account for. He always prefers chasing glnr
drinker, and man that keeps late hours SIN !
