All who do not take good newspaper should
have the following warming read to them, IL is
fifty years old but none the worse for wear:
knew two friends as much alike
As ever were two stumpS;
And no phrcnologist could find
difference in their bumps.
One took a paper, and his life
Was happier than kings;
His children all could read and write,
And talk Of men and things.
The other took no paper, and,
While ~trolling through the wood,
4 tree fell down upon his crown,
And killed hn-as 1t should.
Had he been reading of the news
At home, like ncighbOr Jim,
I'd risk cent this accident
Had not befallen him.

Lol THE NOBLE RED MAN
Lo the poor Indian, with untutored mind,
His limbs exposed and breeches torn behind,
With hugry paunch hc shiyers In the wind.
He knew no inertia, no south, nor does he fear, o.
lie stands an accomplishing, blue nosed hero,
Defes the cold and scorns the thing called zero.
AT night hc wraps his blanket scant about
Him, hides the ragged edges of his clout,
And vainly tries to shut the weather out.
And Arctic wind blows freely DER his legs,
The searching blast even for his vitas digs,
And still nc scOwls at fate and never begs
Yet. do not talk 10 us about the noble red man !;
IN one can't pc 4 noble ana well fed man
He'd better die, and be a noble dead man.
