OUR THEODORE.
(A St. Louis woman claims that she spanked President Roosevelt when he was seven years old.—News item. Tell us truly, is it so, Theodore? Were you whaled long years ago, Theodore? Did a weaker vessel see How you looked across her knee? Were you vanquished by a she, Theodore ? Surely, you who fight so well, Theodore, Have another tale to tell, Theoubre. Tell us there is some mistake; Some excuse, we prithee, make— Brand the story as a fake, Theodore! Spanked across a lady’s knee, Theodore! Truly, that could never be, Theodore? If the Sapniards couldn’t do Anything at all to you, Could a woman with a shoe, Theodore? We are waiting for a word; Theodore, Telling us ’tis all absurd, Theodore. If you swear it isn’t true Lots of us will vote for you And be most delighted, too 7 Theodore! —American exchange.
