And down the alley scurries.

IN Ao afbd 2oS %Srd! It's hey doctors StS+ say
That kiplings getting better
No crown Is set upon his head.
Nor yet imperial eagle;
He's neither King President.
But still his sway Is regal.
II binds the rich man and the poor,
The prosperous and the debtor
And every mothers son Is glad
That Kipling getting better

Who never reads the papers.
His mind is filled with Jungle Books
And various childish capers.
To-day he brought The Tribune IN,
His jet eyes seeming letter
ooh. aren't you very glad. said he
That I[ipling getting better?
All well. the King upon his throne
Is set above the fewest.
The rule that rules the loving heart
Is after all the truest.
And many a dreaming maid is stirred,
And serious money getter.
To hear the doctors say at last
That Kiplings getting better.
