I, . I 'Miscellany STILL HERDING. David Mattson is for prohibition. Daily paper. I love the daily papers. They make me laugh so much With politicians' capers, As funny as a crutch. From P&rets to Sel Lac Cite Of Maxim's wild and free; I will sing a little ditty, Oui! Oui! Bebe, Oui! Ouil I think the daily journal Sense of humor never lacks; But its methods are infernal When your lips arc full of cracks. No more the absinthe dripping, Or the bubbles golden, gay, Will be waiting for the sipping. Ah, jamais! Bebe, jamais! Of Maxim 's I am dreaming, Where the buttermilk was sold; Of root beer and soda 6teaming, And the hymns we sang of old. And of David sitting saintly As he kept within the law, Lapping lemonade so quaintly. Ah! N'est ee pas, Bebe? N'est ce pas? I'm sure the daily Clarion Is sure that he's sincere; From Maxim 's to the Marion, There'll rise a mighty cheer. What ho wants is prohibition Ever thoughtless of his vote-Fighting vote-Fighting for a dry condition, And ho 's zee goat, Bebe, zee goat. GASTON.
