TROUBLE.

The world is full OF trouble

And all that isn't undone

The Turk will not go mapping
For fear they revolute.
Isl Ann Is in a trembe
Because Of dread REFORM

Manchuria is gobbled-
Or wonders II she Is
The arch chef OF peace has wabbled
The truculent Mikado
Is scowling at the Gar
And hints at tornado
or wreck and wrath and war.
And Castro and the Kaiser
Are interchanging bluffs
Each Is his adviser
And gets In endless hufrs.
The Shipping Trust-a scandal.
or something OF the kind
Has grown too hot to handle
Or settle In ones mind
The women's clubs are scolding;
The town is full of graft;
Each day sees the unfolding
rS of tricks where rsa some ones saffed;
Are giving things away
And charges and invectives
Increase from day TO day.
The world is full of trouble:
North, south and east and west.
Each day the troubles double,
And none gets any rest
