Air-"Old Log Cabin in the Lane"
l am looking rather seedy while holding down
my claim,
And my ~victuals are not always served up the
best,
And the mice play slyly round me as l lay MI
down to sleep.
In my little old sod ''shanty'' on the claim.
Yet 1 rather like the novelty of living in this
way,
Though my bill of fare is sometimes, yes, tbs
always rather tame,
But I'm happy as q clam. in this land Of Uncle
Sam.
In my little old sod ''shanty',' on the claim.
The door hinges are of leather, and the windows
have no glass.
While the roof it let's the bowling blizzards in.
And hear the hungry coyote as he sneaks W
thro. the grass.
Round my little old sod "shanty' on the claim
But when l left my eastern home, SO happy and
gay,
To try to win my way out here, to honest wealth
and fame.
l little thought that I'd come down to burning
twisted hay,
In my little old sod 'shanty'' ON the claim.
My clothes are plastered DER with dough, and I'm
looking like a fright,
And everything is scattered round the room.
And / fear if P. T. Barnum should get his eyes
on me,
He will take me from my little cabin home.

And extricate me from the mess I'm in,
The a%ngel-how I'd bless her, if thus her home

And when we'd made our fortunes on these

Just as happy as two bed bugs we'll remain,
| And we'd forget our trials and troubles as W

In our little old sod ''shanty'' on the claim.

And il heaven should smile upon MS with nov
and then an heir,
To cheer our hearts with honest pride to fame,

A Strange. Weird Story, Hard to Be.

A Strange. Weird Story, Hard to Be.
licve.
Grip comes out this week with a
strange weird story. 1t tells of a
travelling man who was fleeing from
the cholera. 1t caught him just be-
fore he got to a c.zy cottage, in
which lived a beautiful and robust
girl. Her parents were away and the
neighbors were all sick, but when she
found the traveller in a dead faint at
the door, she took HIM in, put him to
bed and nursed him. He grew rap
idly worse, and at the end Of the sec
ond day had given up all hope. That
night a fearful storm came up and
blew off the roof of his room, and a
drenching ram poured on him for two
hours. After it was over the girl
came in and then, to save his life,
took him in her arms to her own
room, put HIM in her bed, and then
got in and held him for five hours
close to her warm body and saved
HIM.
1t is a beautiful story, one of the
best we ever read, and we only wish
we could believe it. The hero of the
story married the girl; that was right.
II he hadn't married her we never
would have forgiven him on earth.
Still we can't exactly swallow it, for
her room was next to his, and how
could his roof blow off and hers still
be left intact? Wonder if he only
dreamt he had the cholera; or maybe
he dreamed the whole thing. Any
how, if it was a dream it was a good
one. If he was a married man, and
the baby crawled down and laid
up against the pit of his stomach, we
! don't wonder that he dreamt that the
girl held him five hours. Most men
would dream that a red hot grind
stone had fallen across them. We
don't know what to make of this af-
fair, and the more we think of it the
harder it grows.-Evansyille Argus.
