OUSE-CLEANING TINE.

A scene Of desolation greets the eye;
The carpets up the curtains down, fires out,
Furniture all upset and piled about;
While back and forth, with heads in towels
bound,
With skirts loop'd up a foot above the ground
And arms all bare, fly creatures-can it be
My lovely wife and servants neat see
Tearing about in those outrageous duds
And stirring up this awful smell of suds
While in their eyes there CLEANS dangerous
light
Great heavens, tis they Oh, what dreadful
sight!
The dog, once sCalded, from them keeps aloft,
The cat has sought for safety on the roof.
And in the dining room, where had thought
To find tOOthsome dinner, they have got
A iend of African blood, who joys to swing
A whitewash brush and spatter everything.
But am not forgot, My feast is spread
Out in the wOodshed on barrel head,
One slice of bread, plate Of warmed up beans,
Some water in mug, a dish Of green's,
Oh, banquet rich And best OF all you see
I've brought fellow home to dine with me.

a JOKE ON BURDETTE.

Buldette said he had lived for years within
hearing distance Of barrel factories in Peoria and
yet never saw barrel made until one day he
happened TO be up In Wisconsin. He was having
vacation there, and with some friends visited
little cooper shop where a single cooper worked.
He fouRd the operation of setting up barrels very
interesting, and watched the cooper as he placed
the slaves around.
THAT doesn't look very strong" said Burdette
as the slaves were placed around.
"Ill bet you a dollar you can't kick 1t down in
three kicks" said the cooper.
"I wasn't to be bluffed," said Burdette, "and l
