lScribner's Magasine.
Miss Pallas Eudo.a Won Blurky,
She didn't know chicken from turkey:
high Spanish and Greek she could du-
emily speak,
But her knowledge of poultry was murky.
She could tell the great-uncle of Moses,
And the date of the War of the Roses;
And the reason of things-why Indians
wore rings
In their red. aboriginal nosesi
Why Shakspeare.was wrong is his gram
mer,
And the meaning of Emerson's 'Brahma.
And she went chipping rocks with lit
tie black box,
And small geological hammer.
She had views upon eo-edscation,
And the principal needs Of the nation;
And her glasses were blue, and the num-
Der she knew
Of the stars in each high constellation.
and she wrote in handwriting clerky,
And she talked with an emphasis jerky,
And she painted on tiles in the sweetest
of styles,
But, she didn't know chicken from
turkey.
