THE MAckINAW COAT.

Once he wore a flaming sweater
Preferably with a letter
Like a cureless case of letter
In the center of the chest.
Then he yielded to the blazer
Reg'lar ocular amazer-
Sort of human -optic-dazer-
Gaudy till you couldn't rest!
Through the loud hat stage we nursed
him,
Held our tongue and never cursed
him,
Though we often yearned to burst him
For some w wilder fad.
Till We said: This is his finish!
Though his heads been rather pinnish,
Henceforth watch his craze dimi-
nish'-
But the truth itself is sad.
When the mackinaw dawned on him,
Those gay colors quickly won him,
And he let some dealer con him
Into buying one so loud
Joseph's coat were drab, beside it!
In the dark you couldn't hide it,
And you'd hear it ere o spied it.;
Yet it seemed to make Linn proud!
1t has ninety-seven tints in,
Nothing else we've seen him since, in
He imagines he's a prince in
Such a garment as 1t Is.
We're expecting him to trim It
In some Persian bands or scrim; 1t
Couldn't be more like the limit
Could that mackinaw Of his!
