J IM THE MILKER.

It is wonderful! to see the gaiety of young coves and covesses how recless they are, yea eveh x as bold as a cove called Daniel m the. lion's den. Well Daniel had an easy job m comparison .with the coves that are on the labor market at present, yer. fat man will rend them with his sharp teeth, destroy them, pitch them , into the gutter after, he has made his pile out of the unfortunate creatures. Then the fatman cries with a loud voice, saying look at me, I am developing yer country and, to put it •m plain talk. lam yer god and yer must- have no gods but me. This is. a splendid country if it was not m the-. hands of the. fatman... He (the fatman). gammons to, .develop it. .pet me tell yer that he is an outrageous liar' he is developing his banking . account at the expense of the? working man and .the country can go to hell for all he cares as long as. he is plundering it, which he is .doing fast:" The' bosses wife has jcom© to the conclusionthat yer lieing business man, the man with a wide mouth .and small brain, that is the cove what makes money because he yells all the time that nobody can do it but me. They keep this up to such an extent that they believe it themselves. Oh loard what a push even, the dogs bark at tlvem because they devour the substance of the poor and needy and. they are never, done praying.. ? Now. talking- of praying brings me m mind of Holy Moses Killjoy: North who is even worse than Jim Gib yer might not know Jim Gib but he is a pavson of some sort m this city. Well me 7 am! ! the bosses \y if e have determined: to convert, these, coves and with the help of the loard we will do it. Yea it was said of old that ver get more; credit m the kingdom , of heaven, if yer convert one red hot rogue than nine hundred and ninety just coves. What ho, what sort of glory will I get if I can convert rogue Gib and Holy Moses K. North' Why North's nam.e^ stinks m the nostrels of decent coves. JIM THE MILKER. .
