AN ESSAY ON HEADS.
This essay on "Heads" is accredited to an eight-year-old boy:— "There's lots of kinds of heds red heds, wooden heds, soft heds, cabbago heds, bawld heds, and so on. "Pa's got one—it's bawld; ma, she's long-heded; and pa, he's bull-heded; but I'm red-heded and hot-heded, too! "The smart end of a boy is 'is hed, Jcept when he gets spanked; but the smart end of a bee is not there—oh, no! "Pa says if a feller has a big hed he will get a-hed in the world; but I don't want no hed like Bill Brown's got —it's like a pimple on a pole."
