I admiro Mister Wyor, for I think ho comos nighor
To fillin' tho bill than did Epps;
But I dosiro, Mister Wyor, to request you to fire
Tho girls from tho Library stops.

On tho square, sweet, puro air is a luxury here.
No bacilli or nits wo desire.
Hoar, our prayor, give us air, sweet, puro and to spare,
And to you bo tho praise, Mistor Wyor.
It was midnight iiondish spirits
Gleamed and spit undying firo,
Hades fragments, Satan iingors
Darted higher, higher, higher
Hell entire!
(Atthis point, Jo's courago failed him as ho thought of all
his pnst sins, and ho crawled into tho collar until it was over.)
"Evolution," quoth tho monkoy,
Makes all mankind our kin,
There's no chance at all about it,
Tails wo lose and heads they win.

JO WATCHES THE SKY-UOOKETS.
(Account of Monday night's meteoric shower, in vivid sunnestivc Eng
lish, by J. P. Hoomcr.) '
It was midnight all tho heavens
Blazed as with a hellish glare,
Whizzing planets, long-tailed comets,
Shooting-stars, and meteors rare,
Filled tho air.
Wo have boiled tho hydrant water,
We have sterilized the milk;
Wo have strained tho prowling microbe
Through tho finest kind of silk;
Wo have bought and wo have borrowed
Every patent health dovico
And at last tho doctors toll us
That wo'vo got to boil tho ice!
