HE burly bullock lopes across the lea And with his caudal fells the horseless fly ; The golf-ball goes a-skimming down the sky, The honeysuckle rocks the golden bee, The damosel is dreaming by the sea— Her sharp heart-hunger wakes a wistful sigh; And while the gargoyle glimmers on the pie The rector scoops the shining wedding-fee. While the spry cricket whirls and whirls through space O’er weed and stone and fifes his roundelay, And white sails shine along the tossing foam, In pink and white, a paragon of grace, The sweet girl graduate with gestures gay Her essay reads on art in ancient Rome. N THE GAME of American politics it is beginning to look very much as if Americanism is merely incidental. JHE CHARACTERISTICS of the tiger make that quadruped the one eminently fitted to shine on the crest of Tammany. WHAT the country really needs more than anything else just at present is water ping-pong that may be played on horseback in a progress- ive form. THE PROSPECTIVE CANDIDATE often prides himself on the fact that, in the vernacular, he is getting there with both feet, when, as a matter of fact, he is putting both feet in it. eee ‘THE CONTEMPORARY that wonders if Hanna will run for the presi- dency in 1904 should rest assured that it will not be necessary for him to run when, as the saying goes, he can win in a walk. It WOULD be well for Mr. Croker to paste on the inside of his green- checked golf-cap this imitation scrap of oriental wisdom: What the Americans want in their politics is more eagle and less tiger. eee IF THE various volcanic eruptions continue to effervesce at the rate at which they are going at the present writing, it is quite likely that they will very shortly have a most disastrous and paralyzing effect on the revo- lution industry of the West Indies. HE SUAVITY and cordiality which the astute summer-hotel clerk is now practicing daily before a cheval glass is of so high and superfine a quality as to cause the average philosophic seer to fancy that he is at least a professor emeritus of floor-walking. HE CABBAGE-LEAF within the tile will shortly make the wearer smile from head to foot and through and through until he sighs with- out ado, “ This way this leaf shines far more bright than as the corned- beef’s acolyte, or as the stuff that makes us sad in the five-cent Intimidad.”” THE NUMEROUS long-headed seers and augurs who are wasting much valuable time in wondering where in the world the 1904 Demo- cratic candidate is to come from should rest assured that, owing to the great number of specimens on its hands, it will not be necessary for the Demo- cratic party to set a lobster-pot. . FROM ‘the political aspirant’s flowers of fancy the presidential bonnet-bee distills a sort of honey that not infrequently turns to gall on the aspi- rant’s mental lips. It may also be said, and with a certain degree of truth, that the presidential bee’s buzz wakens a feeling of golden anticipation which is much more pleasant and mellifluous to the enraptured listener than is the sensation of pain which the aforesaid listener experiences in its sub- sequent sting of realizatitn. HOW IT SHOCKED HIM. First CHAUFFEUR Second cuaurreur—" Does. eh? “It scares Blinkers to death to run over a man."* First cHaurreur—" Yes. He has to put on full speed to get away, and he has such a horror of speeding.” comicbooks.com
