JOSH BILLINGS ON OwIs--The owl is q
game burd; he can whip anything that wears
feathers-after dark.
He is wise burd,s and hoots at most
things. e-
He is sollum burd, cross between q
ustioe of peace and q county supervisor.
He is stiff burd, and sits up rs stiff as an
exclamation point.
He is a luxurious burd, and feeds on
spring chickens.
He is long livid burd and never was
known to take death naturally.
He is hardy burd, and groze tuff by
bileing.
He is honest burd, and always shows IN
open countenance.
he is prompt burd, aud satisfize at once
his outstanding bills.
he is a comfortable burd, and always
sleeps in feathers.
He is an attractive burd, and during the
day can always be found in.
He is restive burd, and don't come home
until morning.
Thus the owl, mistaken emblem of soli-
tude and sadness, if we dig into it's nature
closely. is emphatically one Of the boys, and
belongs to the club.
