THE WICHITA AMERICAN Jn Society (Go My IBy MV PHIL080FY. I alius argy that a wan Who dop about the bent he can, Is plenty good enough to suit Tbia lower mundane Inatltute No matter ef hla dally walk la aubjoct fer hla neighbor's talk, And crltiC'inlnda of evry whim Jest all git up and ro for him! It'a natcbural enough 1 guess, When some sits more and somo gits loss, For them-uns on the allmmest side To claim It ain't a fair divide; And I've knowed some to lay and wait, And git up soon, and set up late. To ketch some feller they could bate Fer goln' at a faster gait. The signs la bad when folks commence A rindin fault with Providence. And balkin' 'cause tbe earth don't shake At every prancin' step they take.

No man la great till he can aee How less than little he would be Ef stripped to self, and stark and bare He hung his sign out anywhere. My doctorn is to lay aside Contentions, and be satisfied; Jest do your best, and praiso er blame That follers that, counts jest the same I've alius noticed grate success Is mixed with troubles, more er less, And It's the man who does tbe best That gits more kicks than all the rest.
