Josh Billings On Owls.

The owl is a game burd he Gun whip
anythin that wears feathers-after dark
He is a wise burd and boots at most
things. ~
Heis sol'um burd, a cross between a
justice of peace and county supervisor
He is a stiff burd and sits up as stiff as
an exclamation point.
He is a luxurious burd, and feeds on
spring chickens.
He is long lived burd and never was
known to take death naturally.
He is hardy burd and grows tuff by
bileing,
He is an honest burd, and always shows
an open countenance.
He is a prompt burd and satIsfze at
onst his outstanding bills.
He is comfortable burd, and alwus
sleeps in feathers.
He is an attractive burd, and during
day may alwus be found in.
He is festive burd, and don't come
home till morning.
Thus the owl, mistaken emblem of
solitude and sadness, if we dig into his
nature closely, is emphatically one of the
boys, and belongs to the club.
