"In the present critical state Of feeling

The Argentine government seems to
regard hostilities as possible and is TAX

cfficers have been dispatched to Europe
to purchase armament. A loan Of 80
million dollars is being considered to

In answering promptly the pilgrims call,
For remember this spirit was monarch OF all
On the earth below while the years he spent
In loaning money at ten per cent.
st. Peter was tired and took his time
To catechiZe this one the end Of the line,
Which all day long had bsseiged the gate,
And patient or NOT, had their turn 90 Waik.
But the questions were put to him one by one
How his life was spent and his duty done.

And often I've dealt TO the needy wife,
Or orphan that bent to the warning strife
A need OF dollars and cents, that they
Might pass through darkness and into the

"Hold on" said Peter, "a moment more,
Did you ever turn from your palace door,
A starving wretch who implored for bread
And you cast him of with a stone instead?
I've surely heard that you did" quoth he,
sand answer these questions ask OF thee"

Didn't you ask ten per cent or more,
A gilt-edge mortgage on stock or lands,
And II they failed to meet your demands
Did you ever bit OF compassion feel

And be secure from the craving bands
That cumber the soil In che earthly lands.

And never charged much over ten per cent"

And he bOlted the portal fast and tight
