Bald-Head Sentiment.

A faithful and enthusiastic member of the Bald-H Club of America contrib utes the following as a New Years tribute to the Club: WHEN THE BALD-HEAD CLUB WILL DIE. When the lion eats grass like an OK, And the fishing worm swallows the
 whale
 When the terrapins knit woolen socks, And the hare is outrun by the snail, When serpents walk upright like men, And doodle-bugs travel like frogs; When the graSshopper feeds on the hen, And feathers are found on the hogs. When Thomas-cats swim in the air. And elephants roost upon trees When insects in summer are rare, And snuff never makes people sneeze. When fishes creep over dry land, And mules on velocipedes ride: When foxes lay eggs in the sand. And women i'll dress take no pride. When Dutchmen no longer drink beer, And girls go to preaching on time; When billy-goats butt from the rear, And treason is no longer crime. When humming birds bray like an ass, And limburger smells like cologne When plowshares are made out of glass, And the heart of the Bald-Heads of
 stone.
 When ideas grow on pumpkin heads. And wool on the hydraulic ram Then the Bald Headed Club will be
 dead,
 And the country won't be worth a
 clam.
