The Span of Life. BY PHULIP FRENEAU BOITEAU.
Oh, dog! On you doth deadly curses flow, Hid in the stable low and deep, Thy glistening chain in moon beams glow, Is silent while you sleep. No slagging foot shall rouse you there, Nor Weary's pants shall get a tear.
By Natures self in white arrayed She bade you sleep with open eye, And, watching hear in guardian shade You hear the tramp go shambling by. Thus faithfully thy vigil goes, Thy days in slumber and respose.
Bit by those teeth that must decay I'm bound to see your speedy doom. They die-for all dogs have their day. The dogs that watch in stable room, Unpitying club and Weary's power Shall change the expression of thy glower.
From evening dews till night was ended You kept your vigil just the same And now poor Weary's pants are mended ; He's dragged your carcass down the lane, He pulls you over fen flowr With like duration of your glowr.
MORAL.
So man, in peering through life's fog, Through vaunting health and power. May learn a lesson from this dog. To live is but an hour.
A young lady once had a sweet beau
Whom she told he must not do seau,
When the naughty young Mr.
Right then and there Kr.
And all she could say was, eau! eau!!

Oh Shorty, when I muse on you, As foot-ball fiends, Oh Shorty, do, I muse, Oh Shorty, o'er and o'er; Oh Shorty, as I said before.
