Show A DIAGNOSIS OF KENTUCKY. Kentucky's hills are full of rills. And all the rills are lined -vnth stills. And all the stills are full of gills, And all the gills are full of thrills, And all the thrills are full of kills. You see, the feudists dot the hills And camp ajong the little rills, Convenient to the busy stills And thirsting for the brimming gills. And when the juice his system fills Each feudist whoops around and kills. Now, if they d only stop the stills They'd cure Kentucky's many ills Men would be spared to climb the hills And operate the busy stills. However, this would mean more gills And that, of course, would mean more thrills, Resulting in the same old kills. So all the hills and rills and stills And all the gills and thrills and kills Are splendid for the coffin mills And make more undertakers' bills. W. D. Nesbit in Chicago Tribune. |
