UNCLE SAM A patient man is Uncle Sam, as mild and gentle as a lamb. He takes no stock in useless scraps, in swapping swats with brawling chaps, in pull ing hair and blacking eyes, just for the sake of exercise. But there will be a roundup vast, when Uncle Sam gets riled at last Because he's pa tiens and serene, and has a meek and tranquil mien, the wranglers some times think its safe his grave and rev erend corns to chafe. They steal his dog and shoot his cat, and throw large dornicks at his hat; their fool ishness still further goes, until at last they tweak his nose. Then Uncle Sam takes off his coat, and rolls his shirtsleeves to his throat, spits on his hands and cracks his heels, and hollers till the welkin reels. And straightway in a brace of shakes, hell whip his weight in cats or snakes, as he has whipped them in the past, when Uncle Sam gets riled a( last You cannot always kick his shins, and think hell wear forgiving grins; his ribs you cannot always poke, and think hell take it as a joke. To outer darkness youll be cast, when Uncle Sam gets riled at last Walt Mason. Some salesmen let customers get away while others drive them away. m U JM W W W W )tt JAJ tt W W W 4A W M m m IK JW W m !K m Jt JK 3t 1ft Wl fK X X DEAD OX X - x X X X X X X X X xxxxxxx DEAD OX FLAT, Oreg., Aug. 8 Jewey Rice returned to work for C.
