This is the stanza ill one of Van derbilt's nev songs: \ir: "What's the Matter With Vath.er."

The Critical Part of It. Throwvn from her' luxurious motor car, the failr girl had lain inlsensile for many hour's.

In the game of football, He did rtin over all, But was finally hurled into space. T'lhere was a young man named Uriah, Wlho was a most interesting liar; In slinging the bull, le always was full Of good, old, sparkling Budweiser. Now "Flefty" the heartless appears, Jtst after one of his terrible tears; He is ruflled and torn, Anld looks very worn, And only his derb)y he wears. Now "Frowsy" advancing, I see, And swaggering from starboard to .Ice; 1-e throws back his crest, lHe swells out his chest, And tells of his crippledl up knee.

( 'arody on My Country, etc.) Oh, Cupid, 'tis to thee, Sweet lad of chivalry, Of thee I sing; Lad for whom our fathers tried, Lad for whom our mothers cried From every country side, Let love's song ring. My present feeling thee. Lord of the magic key, Thy touch is love; I love tihy nods and bows, Thy smiles and laughing brows, My heart it now endows Like that above. Let kisses swell the breeze, And ring from all t'he she's, Sweet lover's song; Let maiden's lips awake, Let lovers own part-ake, Let hearts their silence break In kiss prolong. My 'heart's great yearning, thee, L.,ord of matrimony. Of tihee I sing; Long may our smiles be bright, With lover's holy light, Toluch us, oh, in thy flight, Great Cupid's king. --Chicken.
