stitutnd; folding cooked hats will no longer be
worn: flag Officers will wear gold in lieu of black
lace: all officers Will wear cooked hats In future.
Heretofore only officers above the rank OF ensign
have been allowed to wear the chapeau The cap
is slightly changed. plain gold lace strap being

and Talented Monkey He is! until this Monkey
began to Feel his Oats and Winding his Tail
around the Limb, he Swung Himself About
first toward the Greenback Chimpanzee on the
Crabapple Tree, and then Tow ard the Demo

Why should waste my Strength and Talents
Holding Up this Old Tree. I'll Let Go my Tai
Hold, and it may Fall, if it cannot Stand by its
Own Strength. Then he Let Go his Tail Hold
