From the rhllnfleluhla Saturday Kvenlna
Post, llcnrlnted by Special Permission.)
Here's a plain anil'.strniglit story of Ozy
H. Orr
A ballnil unvarnished, but practical, for
It tells how the critter he wouldn't lie
down
"IVhen a Hoodoo had reckoned to do him
up brown.
It shows how a Yankee nights on his feet
When folks looking on have concluded he's
beat.
Now Ozy hud money and owned a good
farm
And matters were working ail ritflit to a
r'li a rm
, When he "went on" some paiirs to help
his son Kill
Who was all tangled up in a dowel-stock
, ' mill.

,, Those notes became due and his dad had
to pay. ,
i Fo he slapped on a mortgage and then
; buckled down
To pay up the int rest and keep off the
town.
Oh, that mortgage, it clung like a sheep-tick
1 in wool,
And the more she sagged back, harder Ozy
, ' would pull;
But a mortgage can tucker the likeliest man,
And Ozy he found himself Hat on hard pan.
lie dumped in his stock and his grain and
his hay,
He scrimped and he skived and endeavored
to pay;
He soid off his hay and his grain and hit
stork
Till the rieky-tiek-tack of the auctioneer's
' knock
Kept up such a rapping on Or.y's old farm
, That the auctioneer nigh had a kink in liii
arm
Till it happened at last, 'long o' Christmas
j time,
, Old Oy ( v stripped to his very last
dime, v
'. And he said to his helpmeet: "l'or.r mum
', my, I van
I guess them 'ere critters have got ail they
ran.
For they've sued off the stock till the batnl
are all bare,
, "Cept the old turkey-gobbler, a-peckin' ou
there;
They'd 'a' lifted him, too, for those laivyct
are rounh,
Hut they reckoned that gobbler was rathet
too tough.
So they lift us our dinner for Christmas
day;
Just remember that, mummy, to-night w hen
you pray.
Now chill; up your appetite, for, with (iod'i
grace,
We'll eat all at ones all the htock on the
place."
. Put Ozy he was a cheerful man,
i A goodly man, a (ind'y man
He didn't repine at Heaven's plan, but he
' took thing- as they rame;
AJ -.1 f..H 1 l.t. .
That he always whistied 'twas Old Zin
Coon,
And he whistled it all the afternoon with
never a word of blame.
While all unaware of his owner's care,
The gobbler pecked in the sunshine there.
With a tip-toe, tip-toe Nancy air, and ruf
fled like dancing dnme;
Till it seemed to Ozy, whistling still
To the ripity-rap of the turkey's bill,
That the prim old gobbler was keeping
time
To the sweep and the swing of the word
less rhyme:
, ' Piekety-peck,
With arching neck,
The turkey strutted with bow and beck.
And a Yankee notion was thereby born
To Ozy Orr ere another morn.
A practical fellow wag Ozy U. Orr,
As keen an old Yunkee as ever you saw.
A li" of a platform he made out of tin,
With a chance for a kerosene lantern with-
in;
He took his old fiddle and rosined the bow
And took the old turkey and there was
his show!
You don't understand? Well, I'll own up
to you
The crowds that he 'gathered were mysti
fied, too.
For be advertised there on his banner un
furled "A Jig-Dancing Turkey Sole One in the
World."
And the more the folk saw it, the more
and the more
They flocked with their quarters, and
jammed at the door;
For it really did seem that precocious old
bird
At sound of the fiddle was wondroualy
Mitred.
In stateliest fashion the dance would com
mence, Then faster and faster, with fervor intense,
Until, at one end, with a shriek of the
strings
And a furious gobble and whirlwind of
wings,
The turkey would side-step and two-step and
spin.
Then larrup with ardor that echoing tin,
.And widely renowned, and regarded with
awe.
Was the "Great Dancing Turkey of Ozy B.
Orr."
And the mortgage was paid by the old
gobbler's legs
Now Ozy is heading up money in kegs.
He would calmly tuck beneath his chin
The bulge of his cracked old violin,
lie sawed while the turkey whacked the
tin, the people they paid and came;
For swift and soon to the lilting tune,
When he fiddled the measure of Old Zip
Coon,
The gobbler would whirl in a rigadoon or
something about the same!
While under the tin, tucked snugly in,
Was the worthless Bill, that brand of Sin;
And 'twas Bill that made the turkey spin
with the tip of the lantern flame;
For, as ever and ever the tin grew hot
The turkey made haste for to leave that
spot,
Till it seemed that the gobbler was keeping
time
To the sweep and the swing of the fiddle's
rhyme.
Pickety-peck,
With a snapping neck,
The gobbler gamboled with bow and beck!
Does a notion pay? It doth it doth!
Just reckon what O. B. Orr is "wutb."

The levision of a work which has been

The January "Hew Lippincott."
Cyri'S Townsknu Bkadv's new novel is
pulilisheJ complete ia the January num
ber of the "New l.ippinco t." This is a
Revolutionary Love Story or, as the sub-title
has it: "A Comedy of Cross-Purposes in the
Carolinas." The real title, "When Blades
are Out and Love's Afield," fits the plot to
perfection, "Wades'1 stands for the hot
headed young officer!,; and "Love" is rep
resented by the two pretty, plucky Noah
Carolina g'rls, whose nearest male relative
is a staunch Tory, while their own sympa
thies lean towards the Colonics, and their
lovers ago on both sides of the tight. This
combination of circumstances makes things
lively or the girls, and leaves no vitne for
entii. Exciting events follow each other in
quick succession, and there is not a break in
the interest of the tail from cover to cover.
This n ust take first place in the list of Mr.
Brady's novels.
Besides the complete novel by Cyrus
Townsend Brady, in the January "New
Lippincott," there are several notable
shoit stories. "The Personal liquation : A
Story of Cornell College," by James Gard
ner Sanderson, fulfils an editorial prepara
tion of many months to publish a series of
College Tales, dealing with the principal
Universities of America. With love and
athletics, strong elements in these stories,
they must appeal to every college student in
the land, as well as persons who like to keep
in touch with the manner of doing things at
the different colleges. A story of the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania is announced for
next month. Mr. Sanderson is an Alumnus
of Cornell, who enters into the spirit of his
theme with fervor.
A. E. W. Mason, the popular English
writer, contributes to the January "New
Lippincott" "The Trouble at Beaulieu," an
amusing story of a tipsy Englishman who is
searching for the Marquis of Salisbury. He
is side-tracked by a long-suffering Colonel,
whose wrath rises slowly, but surelv, and ex
presses itse'f in a series of kicks which had a
sobering effect upon his victim.
"Sarah Bernhardt in Uer 'Teens," by Al
bert Schinz, relates some new and intimate
gossip about the "Divine Sarah's" early life.
Tier manner of avenging an insult at school
is particularly characteristic.
Ldwiu L. Sabin's story, called "The Day
of the President's Message," is a most pa
thetic one about a "Girl," a telegraph edi
tor, and a railroad wreck.
Elliott Flower wules a good little horse
story that raises a laugh against the embryo
racing-man.
Apropos to celebrating the centennary of
the founding of Washington as the capital of
the United States, is Anne llollingsworth
Wharton's paper, called "Washington s A
Predestined Capital." This is not a mere
statement of facts, but includes gossip about
social happenings of those times, and many
names are mentioned which are familiar in
the fashionable world to-dav.
"Talks with Chinese Women," by Lily
Howard, is intimate conversation between nn
American lady and her Chinese maic'. This
reveals some interesting domestic Chinese j
customs.
Under the t'tle "Odd Clubs," Lucy Mon
ro? descants upon the ways of clubs gener.
ally, nnd especially of those bizarre clubs
which abound in every large city in the Uni- '
led States. The article is both useful and
diverting.
The January number of the "New Lippin
cott" sustains its reputation for verse above
the average by publishing "Poverty," by
Clinton Scollard; "Winter Dawn," by Al
bert Bigelow Paine; "Devotion," by llilde
garde Hawthorne; and "The Transient
Stars," by Dora Read Goodale, 1
