In Darkest Africa
Every Hon, every tiger, every beast
along tho Niger,
Each hippo and each rhinos, and
each elephant and snake;
Every leopard, ever jaguar, long ago
has ceased to swagger,
And today is hunting safety while
with utmost fear they quake.
They have heard that Strenuous
Teddy, with his trust rifles
ready,
Soon will land with his press
agents on dark Afric's gloomy
shore ;
That he's got a contract saying that
his publishers are paying
Quite two plunks for each word
written of his Africa search for
gore.
Biff! Bang. Boom!
Give the mighty hunter room!
Every time his rifle echoes means
ho gets some more "mazum."
While the crocodiles are floating
downthe Nile and never noting
That tlfe mighty hunter cometh
armed with notebook and with
gun;
While the tall giraffe is browsing
from the tree tops, or else
dnnysing,
Andth'e springboks are all grazing
'neath the equatorial sun.
Then, too late, they,'!! scent the
danger, for the grim, rough
riding ranger,
Fresh from conquests'" o'er the
ocean where the octopusses
fight,
Will spread death and devastation
through the animal creation
Merely for the joy of killing and
two plunks per word he'll write.
Slap! Bang! Crash!
See the mighty" hunter dash
Through tho jungle after big game;
likewise "two per word" in
cash.
Aftor all the advertising of the -hunt
iwoum De surnrisinc
If the game score only equalled
Teddy's record busting trusts;
If his shooting in the jungle turns
out such a' blooming bungle
As his shooting from the White
House Uncle Sam'll laugh till
he busts.
Then the beasts need never worry
nor deep in the jungle hurry
To escape a deadly slaughter that
wouiu uanisli all their joys,
If tho hunter's but armed just with
what he sought to kill the
trusts with,
For he'll slay no lions or tigers
with his armament of noise.
Hip! Hoo-ray!
You can run along and play,
Though the mighty hunter cometh,
breathing slaughter on tho way.
lutely no interest to me, appealing,
as they do, merely to the fancies
that are marked characteristics of
the subjective mind and wholly for
eign to tho mind that has been
trained by observation and experi
ence to realize the futility "
But by this time the old-fashioned
visitor from Hayville, Vermont, was
in a comatose condition.

The most sarcastic man we aver
heard of is the one who gave them l
tne name of "church sociables."
This is the time of year when the
city man forgets for a season that
he is just crasy to get on a farm.
Ever notice that your appetite for
eggs was not abnormal until the
price soared above 30 cents a dozen?
We are not the least bit supersti
tious, but we'll walk around the
block rather than walk under a
ladder.
Every woman in tho neighborhood
envies the woman whose husband is
handy at fixing up things around the
nouse.
Wo wouldn't car a snap about
being able to regulate the weather if
wo could only learn to regulate a1
furnace.
The average man experiences no
difficulty in convincing himself that
it is perfectly right for him to do
something he very much wants to do.
A prominent magazine is telling
us about the enormous danger to life
and property created by rats. There
is another kind of "rat" that is cre

The average man is always talk
ing about tho time when he will be
rich enough and independent enough
to havo an old-fashioned rag carpet
on tho floor of his very own room.
