A Belated Answer to Il Defy
Thee to Forget"


You defy me to forget you? Are you
so little versed
In affaircs de occur, Mademosele, as
long they've been rehearsal.
As TO think could remember an episode
so brief.
That helpd to while away the time, and
to ennui was relief.
And right you were about the lips that
smil'd greeting for me.
Twas not my fault. entirely, that
enacted the honey bee,
And gatherd the sweets they offcr'd IN
pouting nectar to pour, !
And return to me full measure otfall !
gave, and more. -
The night you thought I'd remember. and and
sorrow DER the past,
was the night took Miss Nancy and
went sleighlng, oh; so fast;
No memry of other days arose, ike
ghosts, to spoil our ride.
AS happy asa king was !, with Miss
Nancy by my side.
No bride I've won as yet, 1t may DO nc
bride I'll ever win;
live never found to suit me a girl who'd
|
vrwould take to run the shcbang, ant
furnish q trip abroad
| If one has the spondullX she tries &c
invest it In n lord.
So don't worry yourself, Madcmoselle
with thought of me, | pray,
I'm having good time. thank you, anu
shall keep on this same way
| Till old age shall ovcrtake me, or death
shall intervene,
To put a stop to flirting. of the man and
woman between.
4 You Just find you wdowers heart
they keep forever green.
And in your busy life forget that m

Then in his love you'll solace find, Q

And send YOU strength and willing hand

Observation-Disclosures

II a telescope and a microscope
we're to take walk together they
would differ in opinions on every
thing seen, because each Is made to
see where the other Is blind.
Therefore let me say to all men
get your plan right, then cooperate
as the individual is only a link in a
chain.
It may pay to oppose for the sake
Of exercise, but best conditions are
secured by finding what each can best
do and doing 1t.
Or the nearest work to ideal work
possible as the world does not know
enough to give especial work to all
pecullarities.
Had telescopes and microscopes
been permitted to quarrel all their
lives we would know but little about
distant things and minute things.
While the knowledge brought to us
by these instruments is crude and not
all useful our minds are broader and
our lives longer on account Of them.
When men with telescope thoughts
pull with in place Of pushing and
kicking the microscopic minded, all
the world will be better for 1t.
We need to stop and learn that 9th.
er people know something and are
good for something, and on some line
of work better than we are. To do
this increases our ability and our In
telligepce.

the isthmus have been arranged for
and secured to the United States.

1t can be said with reasonable GER

Of disturbance can not yet be defined,
partly because the mechanism Of the
