AN ILLUSTRIOUS COOK INSTRUCTING SOME OF HIS MOST INTERESTING PUPILS, MISSES LINCOLN, DOUGLAS AND BRECKINRIDGE.
Illustrious Cook (loq.)
“Now, then, my lasses, in order to make this pot-pie palatable, we must have the right sort of ingredients—so let's see what you have to offer?”
Miss Douglas (who was originally a cabinet-maker) offers a first-class Cabinet Ministership and sundry other promises of places, which promises she will keep—politically speaking.
Miss Breckinridge proposes to flavor the pie by a fine Savoying Foreign Mission, and will protect the Church's interest, and promises to carry out the Bulls emanating from the Church—which doubtles
she will do.
Miss Lincoln, a strappin' gal from out West, offers free farms for all, fat offices at home and abroad for the Church people—and some think she'll be likely to keep her promises.
