ISLANDER


 A little slice of islander will do no end of harm. You say that AleXan der has got a wooden arm. The chap who hears you tell it, will note the story down, and then he'll go and yell it, with friIls, throughout the town Hell peddle here and wander. all up and down the line, the tale that Alexander has got a wooden spine Then Johnsing will meander, and tell his neighbor Gregg, that poor old Alexander has got a wooden leg. And Lyman tells Leander-th this way such stories pread-that luckless Alexander has got a wooden head. Then Alexander hears it; a tear streams from his eye: he brands it and ne sears it as a confounded lie He says, Tt is no puddin to wear e scandal wreath: I've nothing that is wooden about me but my teeth. And now I'll take my claymore and spoil the liars plans; I'll cripple up or slav more than forty scandal fans" The town is full of scrap ping because that story spread; We hear the wounded yapping; We count the mangIed dead. The mOrSue is full of cCrses, the jail is full of takes: oh reader hold your horses. and pass along no fakes.
