JIM THE MILKER.

MADAME SHARKEY WANTS TO DO THE FIJI FIREWALKING ACT,

But Dances a Haka Instead.

Yer must know that the greatests fraud on the face of the earth is the parson, can yer tell me wot good they do ? Im affeared yer cant tell. Now take for instance Jim Gibbs he draws about eight hundred quids a year and is one of them blokes who are always yelling m the loards garden yea .even the good shepherd, yes they are good shepherds for they shear their flock to the skin. Yer can hear the click of their shears any Sunday that you pass a gospel mill. Yes they rob the peopel. Now I Jim the Milker at this reason "of. the year do herby challenge Jim Gibs to deliver a sermon let Gibs give up his pulpit to me for., one Sunday- and. see who can draw the" largest , crowd. I : further promise to deliver a better sermon with ten minutes pf operation than Jim Gibbs ever did m his- life the whole cash- taken to go to the poor. This challenge also applies to Moses North. Yer no that some of these parsons - have whips pf money and lend it put at 200 per cent tljese so-called Christians, they ought to get fifty lashes on the bare back. I raised up the apostle Pawl the other nipjht to ask his opinion on this job he told me straight that all parsons were human swine why says he to me yer must remember me old friend Peter who used to catch fish on the sea of Gallalee and sold, two baraciits fer a bob m Jersulim weir he did honest worick so did I making tents ' but yer modren parson refuses to do anything usefull he skulks round to see mens wifes when their husbings are away at their worick. By gum .they no what is good, let me tell yer that half the devorce cases m New Zealand are caused by parsons a dirty gang. -There is little time to rite but I must tell ver that the bosses wife is well (Madam Sharkey) yer ought have seen her at the exhibition she wanted to w.&lk over the hot stones only was afieard that her clos would take fire and; yer can understand she' could not walk naked, the law won't allow it to be done. However she danced a hak a and rubed noses with the ""principal chefs. My glord it was effecting to see the most civilized woman falling so eisdly into the ways of the cannibals. But decent people always get on well together if the parsons leave them alone. JIM THE MILKER. P.S. —Where can yer find *a decent parson ? Please reply through yer j pro -Bone publico. ■ ,!
