THE RUNAWAY BOY.
Wunst I sassed my pa' an' he
Won't etand'at, an' he punished me,
Nen when he wuz gen' that day
I slipped out an' runned away.
I took ell my oopper cents
An' olimed over our baok fence
In the jimeon weeds 'at grows&
Ever'where ail down the road.
Nen! got out there an' nen
I runned some, an' runned again,
When I met a man 'at led
A big cow 'at shooked her head.
I went down a long, long lane,
Where wuz little pige,a playin',
An' a great big pig went 'Booh 1"
An' jumped up an' ekeered mo too.
Nen I scampered past, en' they
Woo somebody hollered "Hey 1"
An' I just looked ever'where,
An' they wuz nobody there.
I want to, but I'm 'frail to try
To go baok, * * * an' by an' by
Somepin hurts my th'oat inside—
An' I want my ma—on cried.
Nen a grew' big girl came through
Whers's a gate, an' tolled me who
Am T, an' if I tell where
My home's at she'll show me there.
But I oouldn't'let but tell
What's my name, an' she says,"Welly"
An' 'ist Looked me up an' says,
"She know where I live, she guess,"
Nen she balled me hug w'ite close
Round her nook, an' on she goes
Skippin' up the street 1 An' nen
Party soon I'm home again.
An' my ma, when she kissed me,
Kissed the big girl, too, an' she
Kissed me-ef I p,omise shore.
I won't run away no more 1
PROHIBITION.
I am a thorough -going temperance man,
The primes and the woes of the world I
scan,
I pity its hard condition.
The fountains of wrong I'd forever dry
By stopping the:flow. I'd stop the sup.
PIY
And tbotis Prohibition,
If I knew a batter so badly bold
That in every loaf of bread he sold •
Wee arsenfo in secret glutition,
Pd cover him up in atone walla four,
Where he could peddle out death no
more.
And that is Prohibition.
If a butcher I saw in the market street
Who poisoned the people with putrid
meat—
The infamous eon of perdition—
I'd stall
erdition—I'd.stall him where hie stand would be
surer,
His bread all plain and hie water purer—
And that is Prohibition.
If I: heard a serpent hid in the grass
That stung every traveller certain to
pass, l
I'd ourb his ihfernal ambition,
An iron heel on his head I'd bring
And orueh out hie life with hie infamous
sting—
And that is Prohibition.
If I had a fold where the wolf crept in
And ate up my sheep and lambs like
sin,
I'd hold him iu tight partition;
I'd choke the howl of his tainted breath
• And save my !look by his instant death—
And that in Prohibition.
If an ex let loose on the crowded lawn
Was Wont to kill with hie angry horn
In spite of human petition,
I'd cleavebig dull' with a ewift-swung
axe
And bury his bones in his bloody traoks—
And that ie reobibition.
If I know a dog that was wont to bite,
And worried my neighbors day and
night,
P7 tlx bin) for demolition ;
In spite of his weggings, his yelpinge and
tears,
I'd out off his tail just boli of file ore-,
And that is Prohibition,
ODII TO MABS,
Oh, Mat's please tell RS truly, IS It roatiy
pool up there,
And pan you somehow manage to get' a
breath of sir ?
And when night comes, by throwing wide
eaoh window, vent and door,
Oh, oan you sleep lo bed or lo yon seek
the kitehen floor?
And is your brow, like ours is, from morn
till evening wet
With beads of preepiration which St.
Louie folio oall sweat ?
And is the air so full of heat, and dust
and dirt
That one day is quite enough to resale -
dazzle any ehtrt ?
And does the ipe man when the day is
ooldleave you a lot,
t
.And jest a tiny little bit when the days
are Sizzling hpt ?a
And when your brow is beaded with a
hundred drops of dew,
Does any one enquire "Is it hot enough
for you 7"
And is there real good fishing in your
lakes Still unexplored, '
And, bye the bye, what do they ask for
first•alaee summer board ?
We do not like this layout here, the heat
and dust are vile ;
If you've a snap we'll all be glad to oome
and stay a while.
TEE VEXED QUESTION.
"WHAT'S TO Beanie Or THE HoaIE 7"
113Y HENRY PAULRNER' DARNS/LTA.]
Alae 1 for the womanly woman,
Is she now but a thing of the past ?
Mast the delicate mould be broken
In which the sweet image was oast'?
Must the mothers and wives be worship.
ped, •
And -who kept life's pathway green,
Be only a fragrant memory
Of a something that once hath been 2
•
Shall the desolate home of the Were
Know nought of that presence sweet ?
Nor the little ones list for the footfall
Of the never weary feet?
Shall, the light that should be its glory
Be dispensed` so far'and wide
As to leave the home in shadow,
Whilst it brightens all beside 2
Must we see but a mighty error
In the great Creator's plan,
And recognize only in woman
An inferior kind of man ?
In place of the bonnet and mantle—
The graceful, flowing gown,
Most we see "the skirt divided,"
The college cap and gown ?
'Yearning for peace domestic,
Must man sigh in vain for a wife—
Be oontent with a business partner,
In the weary journey of life ?
Or a gaudy butterfly, flitting •
Ever from flower to flower,
With nothing, tohelp or comfort
To lighten each darker hour ?
The typioal girl of the future
Must bunt and sboot and fence.
And for each she willneed a ooetutne,
Regardless of expense.
She met have' her horse and rifle,
Her hipyole and her olub ;
But, what about home ? and the babies ?
And thehusband ? There's the rub I
He may meet his wife an the School
Board,
On the Benob, or on the stump,
Split votes with her for a member—
For a wonder, sometimes "plum.p."
They may visit each other'e patients,
Give eaoh other "pointe" on"Change,.
Attend to each other's clients,
Or pulpits e'en exchange.
They may favor opposing tickets
When election day comes round ;
And, declaiming on different platforms,
With strident voice, be found.
Whilst over the very threshold—
The latest stronghold gained—
The two great party banners,
Triumphantly are trained.
But, alae I for the knotty problem—
For the question still willmine—
"What's to be done with the children ?
Who is to care for the home ?"
Shall the wife stay home in the mornings,
Her spouse in the afternoons,
An each take it in turn to wash up
The babies, the dishes and spoons ?
Shall the husband give np bis business ?
The wife forego her "rights ?"
Nay, rather a revolution,
And endless spats and lights 1
Till, weary at last of conflict,
The quietest plan shall seem—
"To leave the whole matter to Bridget,
And let her reign supreme."
So we put in a spoke for Bridget ;
She may not be all that's wise ;
I'm afraid she's often shiftless,
And puts plenty of dust in your eyes.
Bnt, for all, ehelis kind and honest,
And, many times out of ten,
Were it not for good old Bridget
There'd be sadder women and Men.
Bat if this be the sole solution
Of the much vexed problem of "home,"
Will there not—sooner or later—
The natural question corns --
If the home's to depend upon Bridget,
It might strike any dunce—
"Why not out the knot with a razor,
And marry good Bridget at onoe ?"
Ayer•'s Hair vigor is certainly a re.
markable preparation and nothing like
it has ever been produced.. No matter
how wiry and unmanageable . the hair
maybe, under the influence of this in-
comparable dressing,. it becomes soft,
silky, and pliable to the oomb and brush.
