Jimmy, Jingo Jimmy,
Ills face all grief and pain,
Looks out across the night,
And sees his fate again
A-trembling in the balance.
He hears Ben's boomers screech.
Like breakers on beach, -------:-----------
Making moan, making moan.
And the wind howls through his lilaC
Which resemble sprlgs of smilaX,
And his roman nose is blown
To and fro. TO and fro.
Till he seems like omeaold Jay,
Who, mayhap. has lost his way,
Standing out there all alone,
With his beard.
And Jimmy, Statesman Jimmy,
With his mug i'll grief and pain
Looks out across the nlght
And sees his fate again
A-trembIing in the balance.

thine and place as in Blast Il
Set the supper. Servant Mary,
And make the Old home warm,
My dear devoted Jimmy
Is out there in the storm,
And his whiskers-ihey are leaking
Oh, Mary, tired Mary,
Go spread the big oak table,
And get Jims writing paper;
He NAV write another letter.
Ny husband heart is brave
And his coat is staunch and tight.
But be doesn't know the perilouS reefs
AT each convention fight.
And Jimmy, foolish Jimmy,
The mighty man from Maine,
Looks out across the night
And sees his Fate again.
A-trem bling in the balance.
BLAST III.
(Time as in Blasts l. and IL: places. Au-
glIsta, Me-, and Washington. d. c.
The heavens are veined with fire,
And the thunder, how it rolls;
In the luling of the storm
The chestnut bell oft tolls;
But TO sexton sounds the knel.
In belfry old and high
Unseen forces sway the bell,
And the wind goes bowling by.
How it whistles thro' his ''thstlesv
God pity them God pity themI
Wherever they may be,
A President and Secretary,
Who never can agree.
BLAST ~.
(Time, June 10; place. Augusta, Me-, anu
Minneapolis. Minn.)
A boom! A howl from Minneapolis
How its echo rolls and rolls,
'Tis to warn old hulks like Jimmy
Off the shoals.
Hear Ben's clagueurs. how they cry,
How their cheering rends the sky.
What makes Jimmy's face so pale2
What makes Jimmy's lips SO whitee
Did he see his festive boomlet
Knocked higher than kite?
oh. watch and wait no more,
With face so full of pain,
The boom you nursed so silly,
Is dead. Gillespie Blaine.
BLAsTv.
(Time, June II; place, Minneapolis, Augusta
- and intermediate points.)
From town in Minnesota
Breaks the morning clear and cold,
And the river, like the delegates,
Is as full as it can hold.
-Four tired rainbow-chasers-
Carkson, Fassett Quay and Reed
Thro the sticky mud and sands
Come toiling up the railroad track
With something in their hands.
'Tis the Blaine boom, stark and white,
And so ghastly in the light
With hayseed in its hair.
Z Oh, busted Blainiacs
Go back to far-off Augusta,
And there in little cot
You'll find Old Reciprocity,
Ills face still wreathed in pain,
Looking still for nomination,
And locking, sees it not
He will never watch again
Never watch and wake at night
For his presidential boom is dead,
And Jim is out of sight.

Good Master Cobweb by saying, when

you" To arrest bleeding the applica
ton of cobweb to the wound has long
been a rural custom. Experience h4f
shown that the gossamer Of which the
web is composed forms a very useful
styptic, but a very fatal objection to its
use arises from the fact that as an up
phcation to an open wound 1t can never
be guaranteed as surgically clean, form
ing as 1t does a net for insects and al
the same time for the germs of many an
infectious disease.
Evidence of this was produced before
the Liverpool coroner recently touching
the death of Martha Roberts, who, fol
lowing the tinehonored custom, had
applied cobweb to her wounded hand
to stop the bleeding. Blood poisoning
followed upon its application, and THU
Terminated, unhappily, in fatal Issue
