Inventive minds contrive,

BAKER HKFORK THE TRIBUNAL
Oli, how it grieved my tender heart
When ho explained just why he took
Without ensent, that choicest book.
As penitential tear-drops start,
To hear the 'thunder' of Miss Jones.
While Baker's knees played rattlohones.
KMRIWON VBUSUS "HIGHER CULTURE."
Old Uncle Samuel xtroked his beard
And spat like one whose mind is cleared
Of some perplexing matter,
And said; "Those eastern lads of mine,
About their higher culture line,
Do raise a dinged clatter.
But western culture is the sort
That made me great and some how ort
lo keep my household healthy.
Iliose eastern lads are great for show
With one-eyed specs and 'doucher know'
And my, but Dad is wealthy,'
Hut western culture is the 'stuff'

lodienmy fam'ly vine,
Or smite the pesu, with potent rod,

Then Stick-in-the-mud her rubbers tied on,
But she could not place one foo 'fore t'other;
Then the gallant young knight caught her up in his
arms,
And carried her 'cross to his brother.
He denies that he did this, (although he's quite stout)
And says he was not in such haste;
But 'tis proven to all without shadow of doubt,
By the muddy prints left on her waist.
Although it's all over the blushes will come,
If you mention to them March Eighteen;
And to one who asks for the details, they say,
"The best part of it, never was seen."
