Swat the Fly.


Count that day also gone awry
in which you do not swat a fly.
and thereby manage to display
the proper spirit, anyway. 1t
may be, we're disposed to think,
that one as we'll would swat a
chink when seven billion of his
race are simply laying for his
place; but be it all the same or
not, the thing for us to do is to
swat, and when the time is come
to die, for each of us to count
his fly. Of such compliance with
request is all that promises the
best, and all the evidence at
length that in our length is
strength. There is no theory
the which would sooner put us
in the ditch than each one swat
ting at the thing he most con-
siders damaging. In such a
chaos all were lost, our fippers
very likely crossed, and what in
unity we may achieve allowed to
slip away. So swat, and know
the while on swat that men will
call you patriot. and time shall
hail you by and by as one who
duly got his fly.
