"And what" asked one of the aldermen,
edo you propose to put on the table for the

"Wel give them" said bis Honor, in
reply, "hot coffee and sardines"
One of the Council thought that sardines
and coffee were hardly up to the mark for
hungry, hearty tiremen.

angry tone, "sardncs are hearty, and will

"llere are a few 'p!anks' which gentle

THE ASS AND THE FIDDLER.

Within the fields one Summer day.
A strong-lunged ass began to bray;
The upland echoed back his voice
10 hear 1t made his heart rejoice.
"Ah, what PITY cried the ass,
That | should longer feed on grass;
MY lungs are strong, my voice Is loud,
At concerts | might draw crowd.
List to my music. how it fills
The valleys sleeping 'mong the h lis.
Twas sweet | know, for look. see what
Grand ears for music l have got!'
A great musician heard the din,
While passing with his violin;
He stopped a while upon the way
And bade the old ass cease to bray.
"My long g-eared friend, the fiddler said,
This neighborhood must wish you dead;
For worse than any sounding brass
Is your coarse braying, Mr.. Ass.
If you wish music, cease your din,
And listen to my violin"
He rubbed the rosin on his bow;
He tried the notes, both high and low
Making n stone do for chair,
He played grand, soul-stlrring air.
Ere he had ceased his tune to play,
The ass began again to bray;
No violin, nor song of bird,
Could for Il moment then be heard.
At last the old ass dropped his head,
And to the musician said:
"Music is sound, my friend, you sec
Therefore all sound mus. music be;
OF mine the world must be the proudest,
Because, my friend, it is the loudest."
What more could the musician say
What farther do but let him bray a?
He wandered off through twilight dim,
Ass wisdom was too much for him.
CONCLUSION.
How many men we daily pass,
Who reason like this braying ass!
They grow to men from braggart boys,
And think that brains must make a noise;
They gain high seats i'll synagogues:
No mystery their vision fogs;
What e'er they lack for argument,
They give their store of gass IA vent
And wise men whisper AS they pass,
There goes self-conceited ass.
