Not one spark of living ginger have I ever seen you show, not one speck of virile vigor, not one animated glow! You’re the dryest, stalest fellow that I’ve ever run across; you’re such a wretched mixer that I scarcely blamed the boss, when he fired you from his presence—put another in your place! Come along and meet the fellows, corialong with me, Old Head-—come along! Don’t start a-dying twidty years before you’re dead!”’ : ‘“‘Hike along-and cut your caper,”’ said the ash heap to the - coal, ‘‘hike along and give expression to the sunshine in your soul; hike along, but heed one caution: Don’t express your soul too fast, if you wish the sunshine in it to conserve itself and last! There was a time, my laddie, and not many moons ago when I had this ‘‘spark’’ you speak of, and this animated glow! I was full of life and ginger, and my cheeks had color too—but I didn’t heed the caution that I'm dishing out to you! I had my fling, don’t worry, with the fellows in my day, but this blamed ‘good fellow’ business in the long run doesn’t pay! I warmed up and had my inning, for a while had ‘friends to spare, but my wave of popularity turned out to be hot air! Yes, lad, conserve your sun- shine if you wish this glow to last, for my ashes of the present Come, get a little color in J.E. T. We note by a recent rumor that John Baer is still at large! We thought (and we got our thoughts-from a sub- stantial daily) that John would be in- terned long before this! * * * Editor Wardwell of the Pembina (N. D.) Pioneer-Express, speaks of John Baer .as “Senator .Baer”! Wardwell is not the first editor to get be-fuddled at Christmas time and get into the wrong house! * ‘% * This is the wrong time of the year to speak about it, but wouldn’t it have" been just grand if Father Noah had swatfed those two flies just as they were going up the gang-plank? * * * And so, Teddy the Terrible, it is your plan to disparage Baker, and try to get in as secretary of war! Say Teddy, can’t you take a hint— or will someone have to say right up to you that you are a Has- Been? We’ll make it stronger than that if necessary and inform you in plain English that you are a “Never-should-have-been”! * * * FORGET ABOUT IT, TEDDY! WIL- SON WOULDN'T APPOINT YOU POUND-MASTER IN A TOWNSHIP WHERE ALL THE DOMESTIC ANI- MALS WERE ALREADY DEAD WITH THE PLAGUE! % * *13 The big dailies of the cities got to- gether in St. Paul lately with the aim of pledging themselves to support Burnquist.

The second son of the Kaiser needed a card. table last summer and so or- ‘dered that tree cut down and the .top. of the 'stump .polished as smooth as ‘glass! Moral: What ‘Gaul has done, gall can undo! Can you maintain your compoéure when your collar-button rolls under the dresser? Can you smile when your collar comes loose at the back and -jumps up and almost knocks your hat off?
