drudgeness and downtroddery all time.
Ladykind has been slave of gentle-
mankind from 1 o'clock of history to
present time date; they has been per-

ladies is suddenly enjoying angry rage
about them downtroddery. They wish
to do some poll-voting for therselves,
because husbands is frequently forget
full about how to do it; and thus wrong
persons is often elect to be president.
$50 considerable Suffergetting is be-
ing did by ladies who learn to do 1t"
Hashimura does not overlook the fact
that the Suffragette movement is of
Cockney origin. "Suffergetting immi-
CRATE to this U. S. by boat from Lon
don, where it Is always spoken to with
an English accent, or it is bogus and
cannot be admitted to respectable
jails," he says. "Any young lady of
35 years. time can learn to Suffergette
if she is quiet about it and listen to
speaker while she is being arrested"
A procession of Lady Suffergettes is
described by Togo. He says: ''Follow-
ing is line of marching which they

The witty schoolboy says that after
the procession he had dispute with
his cousin Nogi, who refused to be-
lieve that in chiyalrous America a
lady could be arrested for speech
making or demonstrating"
"One last reply I make says Togo,
after declaring that he has become dis
gusted with the argumentative back
talk of Nogi, Female lacies cannot
make success of it in middle of poll

S. senate?" ''Why, not so?" negotiate
Nogi. IF Hons. Platt and Depew re-

At the end of his quaint prose Hashi-
mura Togo drops into poetry, exclaim-
ing:
BUN BUN
SAKI-RUN,
Listen to the sing I .song." ana
sings how the lady StorkS went out Oh
the family raising business in order to
attend to politics, while the care OF
the eggs was left to the husbands.
Lady storks all de-sugerated
To sky high.
They all run country for twenty
eight annual years,
Elected board of supervisors
And did very happy job Of politicks.
Gentleman storks, who was dis
couraged.
Sat on nests,
But with much unhappiness of re-
suit.
At last one day people of Yeddo
Look up and decry,
Where is all stork- birds went?
My sakes.
All nests deserted from,
No youthful stork birds to see-----
Depopulatiousness must set in
without eggs
And so it was as true,
No eggs,
No storks-~-
AL off.
BUN-BUN
SAKI-RUN,
Listen to the sing / song"
This" says Hashimura Togo, viii
