Bill and Me.
Bill an' me wuz nardurers,
And we alep' together nights:
An' Bill he pulled the kivers,
'N', of course, that brought on fights.
Sich scrappin' as we used to hey,
I guess von've not hern tell.
We'd fight back!
We'd fight jes like the dickens— 'N sinner down a spell.
Fer Bill an' me wuz brothers Beneath one common roof:
An's we ust to kinder hate to hear
Our lovin' fathet's hoof,
Come creepin' up the stairway,
An' sneakin' towards our room,
A bringin' queer sensations
Of everlastin' doom.
But when we heared his footsteps
Right up agin the door.
We'd buckle down for all we's worth An' jes begin to snore.
By jings, you'd ought to heer'd us! We played a reg'lar tune;
An' Pap, he'd silly roun' the bed,
an' maybe perty soon
He'd grab hold the kivers An' give a sudden jerk—
But, lordy, we held on so tight He couldn't make it work.
An' then he'd haul an' tug an' pull
While we held on an' snored —
I bet if youd't seen him onst
You'd jest a stood an' roared.
But fin'lly he'd git tired an' leave,
An' say benest his breath,
"Ef you blame fellars don't keep still
I'll beat you mos' to death."
An' when we knowd he'd gone away
We's brave ez a giraffe.
An' off would go the kivers then,
'N', lordy how we laff! H B
That Mouse Trap
It is said that one of the students had a very peculiar dream some nights ago. While the Gould biographies were current in every newspaper and the subject of a great deal of comment and interest, this aforesaid student became much interested in the mouse trap story, from which, so it is said, the great American financier got his start in life. So much did this ponderous story weigh upon that student's simple mind that he dreamed about it. Yes he dreamed about it, and a funny dream it was. Well, in the dead of night, when ghosts are supposed to be walking about, when the owl sings his doleful song to the tune of Old Black Joe, this toiler of Homer and Caesar became suddenly the inventor of a mouse trap—a real, genuine mouse trap, just like Gould's only different. He showed it to his friends, praised its good qualities, and—suddenly, while exhibiting it,the trap snapped and caught his, the student's finger. The pain was excruciating, and during its intensity the unfortunate inventor awoke only to find that he had his thumb in his mouth and pressing down upon it with a force that would sever a ten penny nail—this, so the gossipers say is a true story.
