We people cannot flourish Without some food that we will like And which will likewise nourish. Already comes the creeping fear Of feeling high priced shackles. ° hen, we bend an anxious ear * To catch thy tunefilycackles. - We beg the dealers for relief. They do not care a button. And skyward goes the price of beef, Of pork, of veal and mutton. They say they see no hopeful sign, No ray of sunshine. ‘Ah, cut Loose with that glad song of thine, Thy “cut-cut-cut-cut-dah-cut!” And let us know the eggs are fresh When we go forth for forage, That we may ‘scape the clutching mesh Of those who have cold storage.

The grocer tells us, “Eggs is eggs,” And other fears agsall us. O hen!
