said if he had a hobby it was the

The busy, busy microbe,
This little tale recalls,
Made its inopportune debut
In Legislative halls

Were fairly in the way
OF laying up little Pile,
For some bad, rainy day.
.IHis measley microbe butted in
RWithout a warning word,
And turned the glaring search
light on;
Now wasn't it absurd?
No doubt it would have waited
Another hundred years,
But its anti Doodle conscience
Was sadly in arrears.
And though we caught them with
the goods,
This doesn't count for much
When anti-boodle microbes and
The law are not in touch;
And then, what should we do
with themp
Will some kind microbe tell?
They one and all are gentlemen,
And used to living swell.
They wouldn't like the prison fare,
And az for prison clothes,
They're not the least bit up-to

They'll doubtless wiggle through
And some 'poor" thief will get

Who stole a ham or two.
