careful voice Of prudent experience,

mental authority that remains unmoy-

the warnings Of knowledge and intel

cry of the soldier is due far less to
himself than to the social pieties that
are mentally unable either to see
things as they are or to interpret
them In the light of reason.

THE DUEL.
The Bingham dog and the calico cat
Side by sida on the table sat:
Twas half past twelve. and (what do
you think
Nor one nor t'other had slept wink
The old Dutch clock and the Chinese
plate
Appeared to know. as sure as fate.
There was going to be some terrible
spat
q wasn't there; simply state
What was told me by the Chinese
plate.)
The Bingham dog went .Bow-wow-
wow
And the calico cat replied "Mee-ow!"
The air was Uttered an hour or 80,
With bits of bingham and colico,
While the old Dutch clock In the
chimney place
Up with its hands before It's face.
For it always dreaded family row!
(Now, mind, I'm only telling you
What the old Dutch clock declares is
Lrue!)
The Chinese plate looked very blue,
And walled, ooh, dear! what shall we
do?"
But the gingham dog and the calico
cat
Wallowed this way and tumbled that,
Employing every tooth and claw
In the awfullest way You ever saw
And. oh! how the Bingham and calico
flewi
Don't fancy exaggerate
got my news from the Chinese
plate!)
Next morning, where tie two had sat,
They found no trace of the dog or cat;
And some folks think unto this day,
That burglars stole that pair away.
But the truth about the cat and pup
Is that-they ate each other up.
Now, what do you really think of that?
tThe old Dutch clock it told me so,
And that is how l came to know

also favors the consolidation of small
rural schools into few more efficient
educational institutions. In reply to
a question as to whether these consoli-

counties, he said that the establish
