Square Deal For Cyrus u.
"And let us for moment take up
the case of King Cyrus IL. According
to history. nothing pleased him more
than to fling GOO or 500 people over
a precipice or to tie half a thousand
innocent children to the tails of wild
horses. 1t is asserted that in one day.
with his own hand. he stabbed go
captives to death. and the very day.
to change the program, he buried the
same number alive. When Cyrus was
in merry mood. as the historians tell
us. he Topped off the arms of fifty
captives and set them to climbing trees
and turning handsprings. If he got up
in the morning with rocky feeling
100 prisoners lost their heads to make
him feel better
MY hucEeberry friends of Huckle-
berry HILL don't believe all you read
about Cyrus. Don't believe half of
it. He was a pretty hard case, but
there was good excuse for it. Wo-
man again. Married a girl who pre-
tended to think the world of him |
and then ran away with a circus bare
back rider Never even stopped to |
shut the henhouse door or feed the |
cat before she went. She just drove |
that man into being what he was.
Every time he Topped off 800 heads he
thought of her. Every time he Topped
off feet he thought of that bareback
rider. You or would have done the
same. Name your boys Nero. If you
haven't got any boy babies then nam"
your dogs after him. Give everybody
a fair show. including the old uns who
have passed away 1t will cost moth
ing and make you feel good. There is
ever badness. but there is ever a good
side to it."
