The busted tour.st ill return from
France with hotel sticker stuck upon
his pants, and tnrred and postalcarded
by bis friends, will reap the penalty of
what he sends. They'll wait bim np
and down upon a rail, and alternately
turn him head and tail, or howsoever
they mav best enjoy the views in Venice
or the site of Troy,
The festive calf will blithely sniff and
snort, and deftly t ip up where the hair
is short, and in the quiet even afterglow
the quail will pipe hi dulcet piccolo.
The bold in-urgent will insnrge the
more, and ill! the planet with hi dread
ful roar, and each one betting he will not
be last, the autumn candidate will gal
lop past.
The new progressive and the Demo
crat, the aninsurging that are standing
pat, and in the midst of them, unfaint
of heart, our Mr. Bryan on ye water
cart. A maze of issues, and macs of
men, and lo! a gallus busting now and
then, and not especially alarmed by it,
the trusts desisting till the (warm ha
lit.
The man from Elba trying to come back,
And the poor consumer in hi cul-de-sac
Unknowing if the quaking earth por
tends
Death or the near approach, perhaps, of
friends.
But howsoever and be it as may, the
dread mosquito will have bad it day,
aud Joining Satan in its spectral growth,
have made it real hell there lor them
both. The w bile the earthly rem nant of
it swings upon the window screen, and
drying clings to that post which, though
wanting mortal Ore, it still hold with
its face against tbe wire.
The sad first day of school will come to
pas.
And the barefoot boy will bide out in the
grass,
And by the time we've caught these
malcontents,
The Crlppen chase will look like thirty
cent.
Miladv Fashion in ber hobble skirt
will stride tbe pavement with tbe men
alert to set her right side np again in
ease she should in time turn turtle any
place. It does beat thunder what the
women wear, and bow they stick on
other people's hair, constrict their mid
dle and constrain their toes and what
importance they attach to clothes. Bat
bless os, are they after all to blame, or
had they been In these things quite the
nine if Mother Eve's I rst ibcught, as
j we suppose, bad rot been neces?aii!y of
clottieit I as u w oe cxprcieu in i:cr
I case that with a uinn somewhere npon
I the place he ever thought "f nnything
at all but gown, slipovers, or perhaps a
&h:iwl ?
But anyhow, tho craalish will have
holed,
And tbe pumpkin shown the faintist
trace of gold.
Tiie sassaftas will don a redder dress,
And tho gods will crowd aroutd the
cider press.
Or probit it i in or whativer will, here
is a fountuin that shall serve us still, a
place of le-tmg and a tteal away out ol
the detert and the heat of day. A place
of quiet and tbe shade of palms, of irri
gation and the soothing balms that no
refoinier till toe poles embrace shall
ever capture for a bathing place.
The hosts of labor will parade the
street, which will remind us of a happy
feat in arbitration from the olden days
when Juliu Ceasar wa a tort of craze.
It is related of that ancient time that
meet September in the Roman clime
was hot as blazes, and the union file
could only march about a half a mile.
It wasn't anything at all, they say, to
watch the mighty pageant get away, the
music playing and the flags displayed,
and see it suddenly duck for the shade.
The gasping drummer with his sounding
drum, the bronzed mechanics who per
haps had come a dozen squares, and in
the frantic rout, ago and apprentice with
its tongue stuck out.

The faint impression the procession
made cn Roman capital for long dis
mayed the union leaders, when the ser
ried ranks at time not even passed the
Roman banks. Aud so it was when
mighty Ceasar came, and having found
the populace aflame, he shoved Septem
ber from the seventh place along to
ninth, which has remained the case. He
merely interchanged it with July, but
when he asked them how was that fur
high, they fairly inundated him with
smiles, and have since been doingabout
twenty miles.
The autumn equinox will conte around,
And Roosevelt, by that time eastward
bound,
Will aid it in the making of such storms
As they may find necessary to a few re
forms.
And then the sun will turn still softer
yet,
And the bold October, having duly set
His plane, and carefully pat on his
brake,
Will tee a hat sort of landing he can
make.
"KNOW-HOW"
WALK-OVER SHOES contain the best of
leather, the best of thread, and the best of
the various other materials that go into the
making of a pair of shoes,
But in addition to this, there is one other
quality the WALK-OVER "Know How"
the art by which all these selected materials
are wisely combined and each separate part
made to do its full duty.
It is this "Know How" that gives WALK
OVER bHOLb their superior style, fit and
service, and that makes the WAKK-OVER
the shoe for you.
