The Song of the Orango PeeU
XAce a bar o the beaten sold
I gleam in the summer sun.
X am little. I know, but think I ran throw
A man that will weigh a ton.
I send out no challenges bold.
I blow me no vauntinghorn.
But foolish is he who treadeth on me.
He'll wish he had never been born.
Like the flower of the field, vain -n-i
Goeth forth at the break of day.
But when he doth feel my grip on his heel
Like the stubble he fadeth away,
FOr I lift him high up in the air.
With his heels where his head ought to
be.
With a downcoming crash he falls like a
flash,
And I know he's clean gone upon me.
I am much scorned by haughty mankind;
I am modest and meek, if you will;
Though my talenfs are few, yet the work
that I do
Has often taxed medical skill.
Im a blood red Republican born.
And a nihilist fearless I be.
Though the head wear a crown. I would
bring Its pride down
If It sets its proud heel upon me,
Tit-Bits.
Why Ho Limped
T admire a liar," says William Aides
Seltzer, the Cleveland author of wild
west stories, "even vrben his prevarica

mine who objects to my efforts to pry
Into his personal affairs recently limp
ed into my west side workshop.
" "What's the matter with your feet?
I asked, more to be polite than because
I cared what was the trouble. Then he
gained my everlasting admiration by a
display of nerve and mendacity 1 never
saw equaled.
An eel stepped on 'emf be said."
Cleveland Plain Dealer.
Getting the Future Meal.
Sdentlstjr declare they soon will be able
to extract food directly from the atmos
phereNews I tern. J
All circumjacent atmosphere is packed
and jammed with food.
But means for its extraction are at pres
ent writing crude.
Potatoes haunt the autumn air. anddborne
on every breeze
Are onions, though invisible and quite un
seen, there's cheese.
The pancake in the azure floats and ma
ple sirup, too.
"While from the zephyr steaks may fall as
gently as the dew.
When science has contrived the way reach
forth with either hand
And from low lying etrata pluck "soft
boiled" and eke "ham and."
The future rain will be of tea or coffee
clear and hot
And heaven drop, of cake and pie, the
kinds that hit the spot.
