The old school bell is soon to ring,
the poets all arise and sing, the frost
will soon displace the dew, and the
wind jamb through the peek-a-boo.
Untutored youth, with tears OF brine,
returneth sadly to the mine, and the
new schoolma'am prepares to whack
the bad boys where their pants are
slack.
The football player lets his hair
Fall into autumn unrepair, -5
And the more atheletic college cops
The students with the largest mops.
The moon will be full on the 21st,
and the password for the month will
be Soak Standard OIL" Everybody
will run little harder for President.
Mr.. Bryan's smoke will continue an in
teresting spectacle. Mr.. Roosevelt will
drop a wasp into the hip pocket of Mr..
Taft, and that laggard will move up
couple of places in the race. Mr.. Fair
banks will continue to pass the grand
stand every seven seconds sucking
buttermilk with nipple, out OF his
pneumatic shirt front. The war with
Japan will sleep fretfully, and Uncle
Sam will sit by the cradle grooming
soft lullabyes and giving paregoric
with a funnel.
The coming county fair is billed,
The big prize hog is corned and swilled
The pumpkin that will lift the prize
Is watched with proud and hopeful
eyes.
And the family mare to win the pot
Is training for the county trot.
The autumnal equinox will come in
on time on the oath, and Mr.. Hartman
will absorb all water that falls to use
in floating stocks for development of
our great natural resources. The
Standard Oil company will place a
twenty-year per cent mortgage upon
the earth and will pay the $29. AGO. 900
fine imposed by Judge Lands. Sen
ator Beveridge will end his honeymoon
abroad and return to the affairs Of the
Republic, which will restore that feel
ing of security.
The summer girl-romlntic thing!-
will homeward come upon the wing,
and show her neighbors for a week
where some man bit her on the cheek
The freckles on her arms resemble
those on turkey eggs, and the neigh
borhood will bet ten per the men were
only joshing her.
The lucky wives of millionaires
Will put up jam and pickle pears,
But the most of us, denied these boons,
Will pass the winter full of prunes.
Some red-hot sealing-wax, alack
will fly down Nancy's tender back
exploring where the flesh is bare, and
and three shrill screams will pierce
the air. The men, a-washing at the
pump, will hasten theither on the
jump, but Nancy, mid the fruit DER
turned, will not divulge where she is
burned.
President Roosevelt, fresh from Oy-
ster Bay, will issue on the goth proc
lamation officially opening the oyster
season. Turnips and football players
will run to tops. White duck trousers
will begin to migrate. A comet will
make one-night stands in the north
east sky. The weather and politicians
will become very agreeable. Nature
which has been in the nude for the
outdoor summer painting season, will
put on thin gossamer, and the Corn
Huskers' Union will promulgate new
wage scale by which they will get the
corn and the farmer the husks.
The boys on Saturday are loose
To stain their hands with walnut juice
The cider swoolen apples drip,
