AFantasia of Football.

~
The football boy IS In the held:
O here's 10 his ro9y hair
He has gritted his teeth and he's out on
the heath
With blood TO spill and spare.
He has pads on his legs and nuns on
his ears.
And shield across his nose,
And he dives in the game with an eye
Of flame.
And massacres his Toes!
o. hurrah for the lad with the lusty legs
And the glad. vociferous shout;
Football he can play in the orthodox way
And kick your front teeth out.
The football BOY IS out for blood:
o. here's 10 his leathery Jaw!
He can smash all his bones. break MS
face on the stones.
And then sing out for more.
He has Drawn III ms arms anu 'he"e III
And muscle all over his frame;
Tie can knock you dead with a butt or
his head,
And frolic on just the same.
n hurrab for the lad with the iron chest
And the hayrick OF shaggy hair!
Nav he trample and pound all his Toes
in the ground
And make merry at their despair.
The football boys again on deck:
O. here's TO his ardor hot
He would crack all your ribs, would MS
festive nibs,
Yes, just as soon as not!
Your chest he will crush with one soul

or his fairy foot, you bet.
And wont give --- IL your whole ci-

TWO LOVERS OF MUSIC.
A Creole Boy and His Wonderful and 40.
complIshed MockIng BIRD.

A Creole Boy and His Wonderful and 40.
complished MockIng BIRD.
Maxine Caspari is a handsome young
Creole who drives delivery wagon for
a grocer in New Orleans. He has be-
come a noted local figure because of his
love for music, and because he is the
owner of a wonderful hooking bird.
Maxine, says our informant, is mu-
sician considerably above the ordinary,
and in the early mornings the quiet
street is gay with the merry sound of
his sweet voice or the music of his
French harp, which he always carries
about with him. It is charming to see
what pleasure he gives. as he drives
down the street, smiling and bowling to
right and left as he goes, like hero in
a triumphal procession. It gladdens the
heart OF every woman on the street to
have Maxine deliver a package at her
door and receive one of his scintillating
smiles and a bow like court gentle
mans.
Entirely in harmony with Maxime's
affable nature is the little pet and com
panion which accompanies him always
in his daily rounds. This is no more
nor less than fine hooking bird
named Beauregard, which is beyond
doubt perfectly exquisite musician.
Maxine has trained him to whistle the
most difficult airs with a grace and fin
ish that no instrument can equal, and
the little fellow seems to take infinite
delight in exhibiting his accomplish
ment. He and Maxine whistles in con-
cert, the bird usually carrying the air,
his master adding fine, clear second,
which is eXquisitely harmonious.
Bcaurcgard has cage in one corner
of the cart under the roof, but he usu-
ally sits on Maxime's shoulder or occu-
pies a perch above his masters head.
When Maxine is very busy and hasn't
time to dismount and linger at the
door for pleasant word, smile or a
bow, Beauregard gives three round
sharp whistles that serve to bring a
servant girl out to the gate for the
package.
Maxine has frequently refused large
sums of money for his fine bird. A mu-
scum company offered two hundred and
fifty dollars for him.
But no." Maxine always saws,
''gol can nod buy mey Beauregar'. He
is nod for sale; he never will be. Heis
my very soul, that Beauregar.'"
