THE LADY LoBsTERAND THE SHARK

Inc Lady Lobster loved the Shark
mat swan in the dark blue sea,
But she had to keep it SO dreadfully dark
mat her lover was hankering, cankering cark
For the Shark didn't care for she.
Inc -ady Lobster languid lay
In the rockweed's deepest gloom,
Ano. she wept, for she felt herself pining away
In ner fresh young chickenish glad heyday,
And the flush of her early bloom
Her shell was bright and beautiful blue,
And her eyes were beautiful pink,
And her claws were an exquisite lavender hue,
And OF antenna she'd thirty-two-
No commonplace charms, think.
The Ees and the Dogfsh sued in vain,
And the Jellyfish worshiped afar
And the Sturgeon woed her again and again
AID the Bass and the Toncod sweiled her train,
And she was the dream OF a Gar
Eu: the Lady Lobster in her lagoon
She sighed fer her darling Shark
10y night or sun, and light OF moon,
AND from morn till eve, and from night till noon,
And from daylight until dark.
One day venturesone skipper came
A-sailinS along the sea,
And he thirsted for great piscatorial fame,
so he balted hook for very big game,
And he heaved it Inerrilee.
Tho Shark was taking lazy swim
That thricsd accused day
When the Lady Lobster remarked to him,
AS she wagged her lavender claw so slim
In her own ladylobsteriike way:
"a constitutional, suppose
Do you keep your old relish for food!
trust you are free from dyspeptic woes
Il a thing gets down do you find that it goes:
Is your appetite always gocd:'
The Shark he Topped his dorsal fin
And he smiled expansivelee,
so long IS my mouth can take it in,
From chair TO bather's reluctant shin,
It's sure TO be good, said he.
Just then the shippers alluring line
Came dangling down by his chin,
And the Sharl: proceeded to turn supine
(Although twas little too early TO diae)
In order 10 gather il in.
But the watchful. quick, pink eye of love
In the Lady Lobster saw,
AS the slender line swung down from above,
That the shippers bait would dangerous provo
To her dGrlng's dear old NAV.
In the fash of fin she had made up her mind
How to meet the emergencee,
And her pink eyes closed Qor love is blind)
And ell her antenng she swiftly entwined
Lest they should tickle he.
One glance of love she ventured to cast
And she blushed deeper blue;
And then swift as the winters blast
She sprang down that mouth SO vast
And upward the bubbles few.
Those jaws closed up with cruel crunch,
And the hook swept harmless by;
And the Shark gave a gentle MUNICH
And he felt himself comforted by his lunch
For Love had dared to diel +,
She had won the right to be with him
AT morn and noon and night;
And since she had made SO free with him,
She did her best to agree with him,
And TO keep his digestion right.
The Lady Lobster quiet lies,
The Shark he swims the bay.
Ye naiadS, cease your wailing cries
fe mernlaids, dry your streaming eyeSl
Love viii find out q way.
Sweet heart!
Love viii get there some day.

A Valuable and Unique Bushes
Calendar

A Valuable and Unique Business
Calendar.
The most convenient, valuable, and
unique business table or desk calen-
dar, for 1890, is the Columbia Bicycle
Calendar and Stand, issued by the
Pope Mfg. Co., of Boston, Mass. The
Calendar proper is in the form of a pad
of $3.50 leaves, each Is X ga in, one
for each day of the year, to be torn off
daily, and one for the en- tire year. A
good portion Of each leaf is blank for
memoranda, and as the leaves are not
pasted, but sewed at the ends, any
entire leaf can be exposed whenever
desired. By an ingenious device, the
leaves tear off Independently, leaving
ne stub. The portable stand, which
holds the pad, contains pen rack and
pencil holder, and is made of solid
wood, brass mounted. Upon each
slip appear quotations pertaining to
cycling from leading publications and
prominent writer's, and although this
is the fifth year of the calendar, the
quotations are fresh and new, men
tionlng the notable facts in cycling,
opinions ofmedical authorities clergy
men, and other professional gentle
men, the rights of cyclers upon the
road, advice upon costumes, direc-
lions about road making, with occas-
ional mention of the bicycles and
typewriters made by the Pope Mfg.
Co., and the information therin con-
tanned would, if placed in book type,
make fair-sized volume.

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1889.
The democratic party has no time
to cry "stop thief since they are kept
busy chasing the Burkes and SiIcotts.

THE wind-up of the democratic
management of the house of represen-
tatives is marked by the most gigan-
tic steal in the history of the govern
ment. Edward Silcott, democratic
cashier for the democrat sergeant-at-
arms Leedon, put S72, 900 in his pocket
and skipped just as Leedon was about
to turn over his office to his republic
can successor.

THE new university at Moscow pro
vided for by the fifteenth general as
sembly will stand as u monument in
coming years to that honorable body,
but whether to their wisdom OF folly
we shall have nothing to say 1t is
very plain that in making the appro-
priation of fifteen thousand dollars
for the university they took time by
the forelocks and anticipated the
wants and needs of the Territory in
the PARKWAY future. Ii the educational
interests of the Territory are advanced
to that high standard that demands a
university at this time we are glad of
it and our Legislators have done nobly.
But we submit in all candor, have we
any need, yea, any use for universe
~ at this time? Everybody knows
that our present school laws are very
imperfect, that but few, if any, of
our schools run a full scholastic year,
a large majority but a few months,
and that we have an exceedingly
small number of pupils prepared for
a university course, Then what neces-
sity is there for university? Again
the next Legislature must appropriate
ten or fifteen thousand dollars to
equip the Institution and as much if
not more to pay a president, profess
sors and the current expenses Of the
same. Will they do it, can they do it?
We rejoice at Moscow's good fortune
and admit, as a stroke of policy the
action of our law makers may seem
wise, but at the same time we fear
we have stepped far beyond the
bounds warranted by our present
school system.

Be Candid.

Perfect candor in politics, as well
as in private life, is always to be com
mended That which is right is, it is
said, not Away expedent nor always
popular. After all, the candid man
has nothing to lose in the end, for his
candor, albeit it happens sometimes
that he may find himself surrounded
by circumstances not at all comfort
ing or encouraging. "Dare to do right"
is a favorite axiom among those who
set themselves up as teachers Of the
people, and yet it often happens that
these teachers fail most signally in
practicing the truths which they so
layishly lay upon their hearers. Just
a little more devotion to the right
more patience in trying to find out
what is right, is far better than all
the exhortations in the pulpit and
from the hustings, and is what this
country needs just now. The mere
policy man, the time server and the
chronic apoIogists have had their day,
and the men who have convictions,
and dare maintain them, should now
have hearing.

pleasant duty of doing what there
should have been no need of doing.
