One of the best things in the world to be is a boy. It requires no experience, though it needs some practice to be a good one. The disadvantage of the position is that it does not last sufficiently long. Just as you get used to being a boy, you have to be something else with a good deal more labor to do, and not half so much fun. Yet in spite of this, every boy is anxious to be a man, and is very uneasy with the restrictions that are put upon him as a boy.
