No. 6 THE GOLDTREE. iHE apartment, in which our story commences, looUed very simple and bare. Along the white-washed walls, whose only adornment consisted in a few old maps yellow with agfe;-there stood two nar row beds, a book shelf, and a wardrobe, on which a globe had found a resting place. A long table, adorned with many ink spots occupied the middle of the room, and two boy^s of about twelve years, sat on hard chairs by the table, The boy with light hair brooded over a difficult passage of Cornelius o e Neposand with many a sigh thun^bed the heavy dictionary; the lad with brown locks, however, was striving earnestly to extract the cube root of o a number of nine figures. The name of our philologist was John, that w of the.mathematician, Henry. <1 At times the boys raised their heads and looked long-ingly towards the open window, through which the flies, humming and buzzing, flew in and out. In the garden the golden sunshine lay upon the trees and o >-( hedges, and how scornfully a blooming lilac bush looked into the study of our two hopefuls. Still another hour would the poor boys be obliged K to sit and sweat, before they would be allowed to go out into the open Oh air and the minutes crept along like the snails on the gooseberry bushes out of doors in the garden. An arbitrary shortening of the study hour was not to be thought of, for in the next room, seated at a writing table was the Doctor Schlagentzwei, (Beat- em-in-two) to whom the boys had been entrusted for their moral and intellectual advancement. The con necting door stood open, so that the Doctor could convince himself at all times of tfie presence of his charges and watch over their behavior. ''Hannibal could have done something more sensible than to have crossed the Alps," muttered John, and "Ninetimes 81 is 729," grumbled Henry with a low voice. Then they both looked upfrom their work, look ed at each other and yawned. Suddenly they heard a loud buzzipg. A goldTbeetle, which may ha^ve been sitting on the lilac bush out of doors, had stra,yed into the room. He wheeled about three times in a circle around the boys' heads and then—splash! he lay in the ink well.
