Th» Young Idea.

In a certain school a schoolboy of

I tender ye*r> i* said to have produced I the following essay on the camel: •The I caanimal Is a sheep of the desert. It I is called a tmckterla because It bas a 1 bump on it* back. The canulmal is I very patient and will He down and die I without a groan, but wbra It I* angry I It gets Ha !>ack up. which la called the I bump. The shepherds of caunimmla is ■ called Aratt*. When they live in towns | they are called street Arabs. When the
