Britain circles of prayer are forming In

MRS. NATION AT THE BAR.

Dame Nation Of red Kansas
BY all her ribbons swore
That her bewhiSkered neighborS
Should quench their thirst no more;
She smashed glass and chewed It,
And spat the pieces out
And tore out punches of her hair
And flung them forth upon the air
And fercely danced about.
East and West and North and South
She ran with all her might
And never did a ntaddened cow
Present so fierce sight
Shame on the Kansas woman
Who sits at home and croons
A lullaby when she might be
Denlolishing saloons.
The bourbon and the lager.
Are pouring out amain
From Franks Buffet and Georges
Place.
To irrigate the plain:
And many a costly mirror
Is cracked in forty ways,
And all her actions are designed
To frighten and amaze.
Decrepit folk on crutches
And laughing maids and men
Behold her smash the windows,
And cry: "Go In again.
She grasps the shameful painting
That hangs above the bar
And tears it into little bits
And scatters them afar.
And, screaming in her anger,
She spies a dennijohn,
And. as the fearful tiger
Springs on the helpless fawn,
She takes it in her clutches
And bites it full Of hoiesi
The man who tends the bar and he
That owns the institution she
Knocks down with bricks and things and
leaps
Across their covering forms and heaps
Her curses on their souls.
The sheriff hurries forward
And bids her cease a pace
She pulls his ears and tweafzs his nose
And roughly slaps his face!
She rips the bar to pieces
And knocks out aIl-the bungs
And, round about five hundred men
Stand with protruding tongues.
She grasps the tall cops wdhiskers
Within her geodly clutch
And pulls them from bis system
And whoops to beat the Dutch!
Her hands are full of splinters
She feels them not nor cares
But keeps right on proceeding
TIE regulate affairs.
And when her work is ended
The men who stand around
And, signing, see her eat the hoops
+ BY which the casks were bound
Speed off in all directions
And thank their lucky stars
That they may still get thirsty
And drink at other bars.
All. may her muscle ever
Bulge till her fight is won
For OH, / wot she'll need a lot
Before the job is donei
Hurrah for Mrs. Nation
Ten thousand times hurrafl
For her who IN her good right hand
Can swing the fearsome blfekbaI and
Herself become the lawI

one Of whom runs away from home to
go upon the music hall stage. Her trials
and temptations in a London lodging
house are a feature Of the story, and her
self-sacrifcing devotion, in refusing to
marry her wealthy lover, because she
had discovered that he had been en-
gagged to Irene, is one OF the best pas
