JIM THE MILKER.

Since I have become a great jouralist things aint quite so good as yer would expect. The fact that "Truth" being circulated ail over the world, and Jim the Milker writing good dincum, they all come to me asking if I would use me influence with "Truth" to get them a show. Members of Parliament, merchants, alias business chaps, and the whole push of them want to be taken m hand by "Truth." Yer must know that me and the bosses wife can't deal with all the cases so send the hole Rang to the editor. By cripes yer will have a deputation a mile long. 'Amongst them will be Holy Moses Kill-Joy North and Jim Gi'b'bs they axed me to put m a good word for them at the office as they were nearly dead through the well merited lashings they had received through "Truth." 'This is good enough and shows they yer have hit home- Keep at it the people at large are at yer 'back. No doubt but yer must have noticed for some time back that coves who cheat steal and perloin when brought before the beak always say yer worship it was through drink, whereas if the facts were known yer can bet yer boots that it was no such thing. Drink my oath it ain't drink, it is women. Men will rob murder and generly speaking play hell for women. Moses North and Aron G-ibbs no this well enough themselves they love women but having weak heads they can't take strong drink, poor coves. It would be fine, fun . to see Kiljoy drunk. I bet lie would use bad language, also Aron Gibbs if he got his guts full of drink and tumbled out of his pulpit amongst the unco quid. My oath it would be as good as a play. Now parsons are always roaring for the Bible to be read m schools., always yowling against drink. Well let them read the holy Buke, and there 1-hey will see that Solomon m all his glory said eat drink and be mery for tomorrer yer die 1 . Solomon was a mahn after God's own heart yet the same jocker had fifteen hv-ndred wives an-d two thousand who were not wives. This is m the Bible that the parsons want read m school. The bosses wife is filled with indignation- that such a. scheme should be put forward for the polutation of the minds of children f and the next time she meets Aron Gibbs or Holy Moses Kiljoy Norlli she will give them a piece of her mind. It is what they deserve— they are no good. Go toi, let them takeths lump of dirt out' of their own eyes before they find fault with the beam m their brother's eye. JIM THE MILKER..
