"Dot Little Baby."
Speaking of infants, we are quite suro
that the following poetic gem will be
read with delight by every parent who
has what he proudly regards as a choico
specimen of tho juvenile article:
Droo as I leve, 'most every day
I laugh me vild to bog do vay
Dot snmall young baby dry to blay?
Dot funny little baby.
Ven I looko of dem little toes,
Und see dot funny little nose,
Und hear do vay dot rooster crows,
I shmile like I vas crazy.
Sometimes dere comes a littlo squall;
Dot's ven do vindy vind vill crawl
Right und his little stomach shmall?
Now dot's doo bad for de baby.
Dot make him sing at night so sbweet,
And gorry-barric he must eat,
Und I must jump shpry on my feet
To help dot little baby.
He pulls my nose und kicks my hair,
Und crawls me over everyvhare,
Und Blobbers me?but vat I care?
Dot vas my shmall young baby.
Around my neck dot littlo arm
Vas squozing me so nice und varm?
Oh may dere never coom some harm
To dot Bhmall littlo baby!
In the report of tho County Commis?
sioners, published in the Columbus,
Ohio, Journal, appear the following
items: "Bread for the poor, 16 35;
"whiskey for the poor, $56 60." This
would seem to confirm the declaration
of an old citizen of that section, that |
' 'most of the corn raised around there is
mado into whiskey, but they waste a good
deal of it by making it into bread."
Kansas teacher?"Where does all of |
our grain product go to?" Boy?"It goeB
into the hopper." "Hopper! what hop?
per?" Grass-hopper!" triumphantly
shouted the lad.
