The Patent Revolving Spanker.
? Some men get boozy,
And some men get tight;
And some they are ugly,
And kick Nm a finhf

ana KICK up hight.
Thus sang Bijah as he sprinkled clean
saw dust on the floor and made ready
for the performance. During the early
morning a woman living on Rivard
street brought down her ten-years-old
boy to be prescribed for, and it was the
neatest job Bijah has ever turned out in
the spanking line. The shingle took
right hold, and the machinery never
missed a cog, and in four minutes the
boy rejoined his mother at the door with
such loving expression on his face that
she had to identify him by a patch on
his knee. During the heated term the
charges for spanking boy with pres
sure of twenty-one pounds of steam on
will be thirty cents. The pins, tacks,
shingle-nails, burrs, buttons and thistle
heads worked out of the cloth by the
spanker will be handed over to his
guardian for disposal The machine
can be worked up to pressure of fifty
two pounds if necessary, and it has
never failed yet to bring about a COM
plete revulsion of feeling on the part of
the victims. The following beautiful
song and chorus is sung by Bijah dur
ing the operation:
Hush my boyle still and take it,
twill do your system good
No use knocking-you can't break it.
Amy more'n the last one could.
CHoRUs-Hush my dear,
1t is queer
How it does 'em good;
The badness goes,
The goodness grows,
As properly it should.

No bitter tears,

No yearning grief, could pay the debt
Of thankless years.

TO Hon. /. I. Glover, of ST. Louis,

London, July 20.-A Madrid CORE
spondent says: When Queen Marie
Christina came TO Spain she only re.
tanned one Austrian attendant, a young
and able physician, who insisted at the
end Of June, on account OF her males
TVS health, on the transfer Of the
court TO La Granja, directly after Cor
tes separated.
Spanish doctors hardly concealed
their jealousy Of the foreigner, who now
advises the king to prolong his stay OF
the court at La Granja until after the
queens confinement, which is expected
In August, when the heat in Madrid
will be very great. The senior Spanish
physician has resigned, and Others
would have followed but his example,
had not the king declined to receive his
resignation.
The opinion Of Madrid surgeons is
that with care the heat might not be
dangerous. Premier Canovas del Cas-
tello shares this opinion. He considers
La Granja place insufficient for state
ceremonies attending the birth OF an
heir to the throne. Austrian physi-
clans sturdily defend his view. The
queen prefers TO remain at La Granja.
