THE DEAD ONES.

The poets of these later days have cold feet all the time; for people read their soulful lays, and cry What rot ten rhyme! Why can't they write as Byron wrote. and hit the heights of song? They strike q harsh and jar ring note-the changing of a gong.
 This Byron, in his lusty prime, made something of hit; yet critics who perused his rhyme declared it counter felt. His song." they said, gives us & pain, q dry pain in the neck; it's just such stuff as Laura Jean will write when she's on deck. Why cant he get his harp on straight, and do the job in style? Why can't he strike the Shakespeare gait, and sing song worth while?" And when the Bard of Avon smote the harp that had no peer, folks said: The bleat ing of a goat sounds sweeter to the ear. When Chaucer wrote, his rhym es had sense, and when he came tc bat, he knocked the ball clear through the fence, and scored, you bet your hat" And thus 1t was when Homer wrouht, and piled his fountain pen and ground out epics smoking hot; they jumped upon him then. They told him of some graSsfed Greek whose wickiup was near, who wrote more Hot Stuff in a week than ht could in a year.-Walt Mason.
