High Treason
"Now, these 'ere congressmen
and senators," ominously but
somewhat involvedly said Eli
liamsbottom, during a recent
session of the Gold Brick Club,
"slaves of the railroads, allies of
the trusts and bootlicks of the
Money Power; these slimy-
tongued demegogues who prate
of the rights of the people, in-
stead of which they are contin-
ually passing laws to hold the
noses of the toiling masses har-
der and harder down on the
grindstone of financial degrada-
tion, till 1 ask you, my feller-
citizens, why is it, in tliis en-
lightened d i.v and time, why is
it?—That's tin.- .jucstion!"
"That's ft fact, Eli!" soothing-
ly returned the Old Codger. "I
appreciate just how you fee)
about the matter, sometimes
when 1 have taken a luetic too
much quinine for my malarin, I
get to thinking some mighty
queer things—seem sensible
enough to me at lho time, hut I
suppose they would sound like

The toad according to
bobby jonks.
The toad is an innocent Insect
that looks like a pocket-book
tull of hops, but a fat man play-
ing a guitar is a more repulsive
spectacle. And there you are!
A horned toad resembles a
good many people, and als:> a
bluff. lie makes you think he
is dangerous just to look at him,
but in reality he is as harmless
as cold tea. It is said that the
oil of tobacco is so poisonous
that a drop on a dog's tail will
kill a man, but 'most all venera
hie men drink whiskey and
chop cards of' wood all their
lives. Old age is honorable, but
it makes a man boast about how
much smarter he used to be than
the young men of today are.
A reminiscence is a lie that has
been told so often that it's got
to believing itself.
Onto there was a man who
had a wooden leg, and he was
sort o' modest about if. So he
went to the slaughter-house and

It's a gay old world when you're!
«a.y
And A glad bid world when
you're gled;
But whether you play
Or go tolling away
It's a and old world wheti
you're sad.
It's a grand old world if you're
great
And a mean old World If you
Small;
It's a world full of hate
For the foolish who prate
Of the uselessness of it all.
It's a beautiful world to see
