A Tale Of Fur.

Would you know how Lougee Bros.
Live, and sell their Furs so cheaply
Listen to this simple story
To this tale of business shrewdness.
When the summer sun was scorching
And the heated earth seemed painting,
And the bull frog the Dahinda
Rugged the shady sides of Bayous,
And most dealers hung their hammocks
Underneath the pleasant shade trees,
To keep off the fiery la ices
Hurled at them by Shawondasee,
Or else packed their grips and sauntered
Where the breezes OF the ocean
Would allow their linen collars
Half a chance to keep their shape up,
HE'D them to the big sea water
To assuage their perspiration.
Then it was these hustling merchants
Buckled on their belts of wampum,
Hurried off without complaining
To the haunts of Solomon Levi;
And they took him by his left ear,
Quietly aside they led him;
Ascertaned as they expected
That uncertain legislation
Had DESTROYED and killed his business,
Killed it deader than door-nail
As unto the bow the cord is
SO unto the Jew is money;
He will break his back to get it,
1t will break his heart to lose it,
He was in bad dilemma,
For his skins of mink and beaver
Skins Of muskrat, skunk and coney.
Wool seals, fur seals and electrcs,
Monkeys, astrachans and persianS,
All the skins a skin could think of
For to skin the meek-eyed Christian,
Had not as yet felt the knife blade,
Felt the knife blade that would shape them
Into all the latest fashions
That his cunning hand was skilled in,
He was very sore and needy
For he had note maturing;
So he made unheard of prices,
Just to set the ball rolling;
Then he got a generous order,
GOT an Ordtr tnat surprised MIN
Loud he called upon Rebecca,
Moses, Isaac and Solomon, Jr,
Told them that great expedition
And great keenness in selecting
Was the only thing t'would save them
From immediate annihllation.
Twas with eager hand and willing
- 81 oh ? heir labor
All the coed stock they selected,
All the poor stock they rejected;
Put the warm side (fur sde) outside,
Put the cold side (skin side) inside,
Used the the very best OF edgings,
Used the very finest Innings,
So that when turned inside outside,
None could criticise or censure
Homeward then these merchants journeyed,
Felt rewarded for their labor;
Got their goods all in and paid for,
Ere the frost had nipped the cabbage;
Thus it was they beat all rivals,
Wiped the very earth up with them,
Wiped the earth up with such fury
That the deep jurassic stratum
Was laid bare in several places,
If you want to save ten dollars,
Save ten dollars at one full swoop,
At the same time get bargain
Which environs every comfort
That human heart could wish for,
Should you want to get bargain,
At the same time get protection
From the searching winds Of winter,
From Ka-b bon-ok-ka's breathing,
From the chill septentrion furies
From Jack Frost and cruel snap,

cation are to the effect that tho reform

ernment by the Japanese is making salts.
factory progress. This programme, accord.
ing to The Jigi, embraces 20 propositions
and was presented to the king Of Korea
on the goth and 2lst of November and was
approved by him.
The Tai Won Kun, until recently the
aged regent Of Korea, and who was de-
posed for sending letters to the Chinese
generals in Phyong Yang, has apologized
TO the Japanese representative and declar.
ed by way of showing his repentance that
he should not take any further part in the
active politics Of the country. To a ques-
tion from the japanese minister whether
he would pledge his honor not to interfere
any longer in administrative affairs either
oovertly or overtly he answered dejectedly
in the affirmative. He further asked the
minister to employ all his ability for the
reform of Korea, and also asked pardon
for his favorite grandson, who had taken
a prominent part in the same matter.
The letters referred to promised the Chi.
nese generals that on the approach Of their
troops to Seoul he (the Tai Won-Kun)

were found among tho documents that the
Japanese seized in the Chinese camps at

The only difficulty at present on the hor-

ambition Of the queen to interfere in state
affairs. Obliged to curb her ambition

gain her former position, and such an OPP
