TOUCHES OF NATURE.
De dog is er mighty kine hearted animal, but I hab noticed dat he'll snap at er chile 'fore he will er grown pusson. De gennerman is bo'n, not made. Doan kere how much trouble yer takes wid er hog, he ain't gwin ter 'vide his con wid his neighbor. De rooster is suthin' iike er human bein'. When he'll fight, he ain't erfeerd er nuthin', but when he won't dar am' abigger coward nowhar. De mole an 1 de eagle in de transackshun o' dar bus'ness am' no furder er part den de eddycated man widout er soul an' de rough man wid one. Natur's sweetes' gift ter man is kin'ness o' heart, an' ef she hab he? dis back, dar am' much ter be hoped frum de slightest pusson.
