The Consumer.

Pm the Ultimate Consumer,

for I've carried all the burdens
of the world, a thousand years,
and I'm doomed to pack those
burdens till this planet is no
more, so my eyes are full of sor-
row, and my heart is sick and
sore. I've right to groan and
grumble and deplore my many
ills, for I'm paying all the taxes.
and I'm footing all the bills; to
defray the worlds expenses | am
always sweating blood; I'm the
Ultimate Consumer, and my
given name is Mud. Oh, the
farmer gets a rake-of when he
sells a load of wheat, and the
miller, white and dusty, gets a
rake-off and repeat. and the job
Der gets a rake-off when he sells
a sack of -four. and the dealer
gets a rake-off, or you'd see him
looking sour; and the Ultimate
Consumer, when he buys dinky
sack, has to pay these divers
rake-offs. while pink pains run
up his back. And they tax the
woolens maker, who Ill COM
merce cuts a swath, and he
hands along the taxes to the
gent who buys his cloth, and
this gent just hands the taxes to
the fellow lower down, till they
reach the busy tailor in our
little country town. And the
Ultimate Consumer pays the
taxes in the end. when ne

guy who pays the fiddler. I'm the
