BOBBY AND EASTER.
l don't think it's right;
don't think it's fair;

At all; so there.
Its only becuse
I'm young, you see,
They think they can play
Their tricks upon me.
Ihey gave me am egg,
And a beauty, too,
ALI golden yellow
With stripes of blue.
They said twas a true egg,
An Eester one, too,
And, of course, l supposed
1t was SO all through.
But when it was opened,
Just think what a shame;
Twas just like the white ones:
Just 'zactly the same.
Part white and part yellow,
Not bit of it blue,
And it tasted the same
As the other ones, too.
l don't think it's right,
And l don't think tic fair,
And 1 don't like Easter,

TWO DOGS.

A big woolly dog with a deep bass
growl,
And rival cur with an angry
howl
Both snarling and eager for the
fray,
And only high fence in THE
way;
Each showed dangerous glitter
ing eye,
AS he on his side snarled a fierce
def.
"Yow-wow;" growled the big
dog" Burr-wrr, ~Nsnarled TIL
IN chew" said the big dog,
your flea-bitten fur
You can't YOU'RE a coward, :"
the rival cur cried,
And I'll eat you alive if you'll
come outside"
Thus they chased each other and
growled their hate,
When they suddenly came to an
open gate.
They looked at each other with
wide-open eyes,
And both dropped their tails
tween their legs i'm surprise
Then each without thought of good
breeding or taste,
Gave one frightened yelp and re-
treated in haste.

WILL AND WON'T.


Viii and Won't We're two little boys
Who lived in the land of Stir,
And if you will listen I'll
tell you all
just what kind of boys they we're.
Will was very Industrious
A boy who was fond of work;
But Won't was as lazy as he could
A boy who would always shirk
When Will was told he must do a
thing,
He did it without delay;
While Won't put off till tomorrow
The work to be done today
Now when these boys were aged
men
Will had fortune, AMI more;
He had the respect OF ali, but Won't
Was begging from door to door.

Amsterdam, Sept 15. - The three
cablegrams sent by Count Luxburg
German minister to Argentina, to the
German foreign office through the
Swedish legation have finally been per-
mitted to be published in the German
press.
The Koelnische Zeitung says that il
is easy to understand that the pub

sion and that President Wilson has so
far probably been successful with his
maneuver, but adds that they can only
be rightly judged If IL is not forgot
ten that they were secret messages in
code and If the dispatches of entente
diplomacy could be read still more
drastic expressions would be en-
countered. Regarding the phrase in
one of Count Luxburg's dispatches
about sinking steamships without leav-
