That Dog Song

Wunst me and Lem Briggs and old Bill Brown
Took load of Gavin to town.
An oil Jim Dog. the ornery cuss
He jess nacherlly followed us.
Chorus
Every time come to town,
The boys start kickin' my dawg aroun'
Makes no difference if he is houn'
They gotta quit kickin' my dawg aroun.
AS we drive past Sam Jonhson's store
Passel O. yaps came out a the door
When Jim he stops to smell box
They SHE'D at him bunch of rocks
They tied tin to his tail
An run him past the county Jail
N that nachelly makes me sore
N Lem he cussed and Bill he swore
Chorus
Me and Lem Briggs and OIL Bill Brown
We lost nc time jumpin' down
An we wiped them ducks up on the groun'
For kickin' my OF dawg aroun
Folks say dawg can't hold grudge
But once when got too much bulge
Them town ducks tried to do me up
But they didn't count OH oil Jim pup.
Chorus
Jim seed his duty thar and then
An he lit into them gentlemen
An he sure mussed up the courthouse square
With rags and meat and hide and hair.
Chorus
Sift the meal and save the bran:
You can't grow taters in marshy Lam;
Makes no difference if he is a houn'
You gotta quit kickin' my dawg aroun
Chorus:-
Every time go to school,
The teacher lans with rule;
Makes no deifrence if am fool
She's got quit la1nmn me with a rule.
This latter verse brings out an
other touch of sentiment--for what
political element has been lammed
with the rule of public opinion with
more regularity and precision than
the democratic party? But the song
does not stop here. When the en-
thusiasm is at high pitch just filler
that means nothing comes in handy,
so we find the following:
chaw de meat and tos de bone
OF Blue Neck lives on Tallyhone.
Makes no difference if he is houn'.
You gotta quit kickin' my dawg aroun'.

closed his eyes, he stops, as he thinks
that he is asleep. But he is sadly mis-

imp of Satan"
If there are other children in the
family they also suffer under baby's
arrival. Before the new conner put
in his appearance they, and espec-
tally the one Immediately before
him, were the Fcuddled ones. But
baby changes all this-he is King
now. Little children are very quick
to notice any change in their treat
ment and are not Slow in resenting
it. From my own experience /
know that when another boy ar
rived i'll the family, where, up to
then, he had been the only one, the
boy looked at things quietly for
while, but then his little heart could
bear it no longer. One day his
mother surprised him. as he was
irving to put string around the
sleeping baby's neck. Why. what
are you doing? asked the astonished
and frightened mother. L want to
kill him; / do not like him here with
us, was the reply. One day met
a yOungster who was crying bitterly.

asked him. oh, matter enough, !"
he replied. There is no justice in
the world. / just bad a whipping

But although baby is SO much PAM
pered, he has his trials too. To these
/ reckon the frequent and indiscrim-
mate hugging and kissing he has to
undergo at the hands of the female
friends and relations of the family.

A lady, travelling in crowded

blesome baby with her. In spite of
all she could do the little one would
not be pacifed. At last she cried
out in desperation, oh, whatever

grouchy bachelor, sitting in front of
her. But presently he had very ur-

GO and take back seat!
The names given to baby are le-
gion. To the fond mother and her
female friends he is a peach," a
gold ANGEL mothers joy," faith
er's pride,'' 'tootsey- wootsey," a
smart little fellow" who will make
the world ring with his smartness,

In this connection / would like
to know where all the ounces and

certainly can not have been born,
for whoever heard of Ounce or

tional enemy, who forever lives and

the old bachelor-an "unmitigated
nuisance.
As said before: the birth of
baby reduces his father to nothing
ness. AS soon as the former arrives
the father has to abdicate his posi-
tion as head of the house baby
takes command of the whole ranch.
No loud talking-it disturbs baby;
no slamming of doors-it frightens
baby; no smoking-it hurts baby.
Papa is reduced to the position of
bodyguard Of his heir and successor.
But this generally only happens
when baby is four months or so old,
| for before that time no sane mother
will trust b precious to the
clumsy hand of mere man"
though this mere man. is her hus-
band and the father of the child.
He might break baby's bones, or
even his neck. But now papa is
graciously allowed to make the
nearer acquaintanceship of his child,
but which, as time goes on, grows
very tiresome and distasteful to him.
When baby shows SYMPTOMS of un-
rest, especially at night time, papa
is urged by his loving spouse to get
up and carry him around a little
while. This not proving success
he is advised to hunt for the para
goric bottle; to heat water and milk
and mix drink for baby, taking so
much peppermint, so much milk,
water and sugar, and to make sure
that it has the right temperature, he
must taste it-b- r-r-r! / can taste
that stuff in my mouth, yet!
The older baby grows the more
he gets in the habit of being wide
awake and querulous, when in his
papa's opinion he should be sleeping
like the rest of the world. But baby
thinks that the hours between IL m.
and 4 a. m. are the proper time to
take his constitutional, and is not
backward in intimating this by the
famous calliope sounds. What, can
papa do when urged by his wife to
quiet baby? Let us hope that he
is not such brute as that man who,
when urged by his wife to quiet the
baby, said: Why, he does not dis
turb me'' But you have to quiet
him anyhow; he is as much your as
my baby" well then" he re-
piled, you hush your half and let
my half cry on So he will get up
and in his undress uniform march
up and down the room, finally even
j tuning up his martial voice and try
!. ing to sing Rock-a my baby in the
tree-top," though in deadly fear that
his neighbors will have him arrested

CATTLE-Receipts OF cattle were very
liberal again today, 372 cars being re-
ported In. While this Is decidedly smaller
than Yesterday, II was very liberal for
Tuesday, making the total run for the
two days this week 24,000 head This is
about the same or slightly smaller than
for the corresponding period last week
and larger than a year ago by 1000 head
or more.
Stock cattle and feeders were the first
to sell. II would appear that the country
realized that the range season is well adj
vanced and that the time to buy cattle Is
when the runs are large. As result
there were good many country buyers
In both yesterday and today and they
bought so freely that in spite of the
large run the market both days was
active, with the best grades Of cattle
fully steady. Common cattle were as o.
matter Of course more or less neglected
and weak TO lower There we're, however,
q great many medium to pretty decent
cattle that were also q little slow, with
prices only steady or barely steady TAX
ing the market as whole, however, the
feeders sold very freely and at prices en-
tirely satisfactory TO the selling inter-
ests. The fact that the heavy runs this
week have not broken the market to, any
appreciable extent would indicate that
buyers want the cattle and are willing
to pay current prices for them.
Beef steers started out rather slow and
dull, and that was also true of cows and
hefers. The feeder trade seemed to at
tract the most attention at the beginning
and packers we're inclined to hold back
until at least a part of the feeders had
been moved cut of the way before trying
to do very much Thus the market on
all kinds of killing cattle was slow and
weak in opening, although the strictly
good cattle were generally picked up In
good season in the morning at steady
prices.

HOGS-tt was case OF sellers trying
to get at least steady prices on the hog
market and most OF the buyers persistinS
IN getting their hogs as cheap as pos
sible. Sellers were forced to let go bulk
OF the offerings about 5dlec below the
gcneral market yesterday. There may
nave been little trade at the opening at
steady prices on the part Of shippers and
spectators, but business done on packing
account was Indifferent and slow As OF
late the packer buyers were the chief
factors in the trade, taking almost all
the holdings out OF first hands. Towards
the close OF the supply OF hogs unsold was
apparently not large enough to meet the
needs OF the ouyers who had not at that
time satisfied their requirements. Pack
ers filled few orders at the close only
nickel lower than the general run Of
prices yesterday. Most of the hogs sold
around SS,75ISs6, with a top OF $500 being
paid for the best hogs on the market.
The shipping demand was very light aud
the spectators considering the trade
extremely uncertain early In the morning
were very conservative In their opera

garia would probably declare war before
night. December ranged from sage to
