ful arrangement,Carlos Valderrama Jersey," replied the man, with a touch ofenthusiasm. "It opens and shuts itself."I bought one and found that he was quite correct. It did open andshut itself. I had no control over it whatever. When it began torain, which it did that season every alternate five minutes, I used totry and get the machine to open, but it would not budge; and then Iused to stand and struggle with the wretched thing, and shake it,Marco Reus Jersey, andswear at it,Joshua Kimmich Jersey, while the rain poured down in torrents. Then the momentthe rain ceased the absurd thing would go up suddenly with a jerk andwould not come down again; and I had to walk about under a bright bluesky, with an umbrella over my head,David de Gea Jersey, wishing that it would come on torain again, so that it might not seem that I was insane.
When it did shut it did so unexpectedly and knocked one's hat off.
I don't know why it should be so, but it is an undeniable fact thatthere is nothing makes a man look so supremely ridiculous as losinghis hat. The feeling of helpless misery that shoots down one's backon suddenly becoming aware that one's head is bare is among the mostbitter ills that flesh is heir to. And then there is the wild chaseafter it, accompanied by an excitable small dog, who thinks it is agame, and in the course of which you are certain to upset three orfour innocent children--to say nothing of their mothers--butt a fatold gentleman on to the top of a perambulator, and carom off a ladies'

It seemsso sad to see the little dirt-grimed brats try to play in the noisycourts and muddy streets. Poor little uncared-for,Iker Casillas Jersey, unwanted humanatoms, they are not children. Children are bright-eyed, chubby, andshy. These are dingy, screeching elves, their tiny faces seared andwithered, their baby laughter cracked and hoarse.

We must seek it among theleafless woods and the brambly lanes, on the heathy moors and thegreat still hills,Brazil Drakt, if we want to feel its joyous breath and hear itssilent voices. There is a glorious freshness in the spring there.
The scurrying clouds,David Silva Jersey, the open bleakness, the rushing wind,Riccardo Montolivo Jersey, and theclear bright air thrill one with vague energies and hopes.
