MR. DOOLEY
On the Intellectual Life
By F. P. DUNNE.

1904,
Phil-
“Well, sir,” said Mr. Dooley, “It
must be a gran’ thing to be a colledgo
pro-flssor.”
“Not much to do,” sa’d Mr. Hen-
nessy. . • ’
“But a gr-reat deni to say,” said Mr.
Dooley. “Ivry day th* mlnyit I pick up
me pa-aper afther I’Ve read th’ crim
inal on’ other pollytlckal news, th*
Bportin’ news, th* rale estate adver-
tlscmints, th’ invytution fr’m th’ cul
tured foreign gent to meet an Ameri
can lady lv some means, object a mat
ter iv more money, th’ sportin' news
over again, thin th’ Iditoryals, I hasten
to find out what th’ colledge pro-flssor
had to say yesterday. I wisht th’
iditor wud put it in th’ same column
lv the pa-aper Ivry day. Thin ho
wudden’t have to collect anny other
funny column. ‘Humorous: Profls-
sor Wlndhaul lv Harvard makes a
savidge attack on Abraham Lincoln.’
As It Is, I sometimes have to hunt
through th’pa-aper fr’m th’ Newport
scandal on page wan to th’ relliglous
notes on page two hundherd an* four
bofure I come acrost mo fav-rlte fun
ny sayin’s iv funny fellows.
“I’ve been collidin' these wurruds
lv wisdom f’r a long time, Hlnnisny,
an’ I’m now prepared to deliver ye a
sample colledge lecturo on all sub-
Jicks fr’m th* creation iv th- wurruld:
‘Young glntlemen: I will begin be
sayin’ that I have me doubts about th*
varyoua stories consumin' th* creation
iv th* wurruld. In th’ first place. I
dismiss with a loud laugh th’ theery
that it was created in six days. I cud
make such a wurruld as this in two
days with a scroll saw. Akelly pre
posterous Is th’ Idee that it wasn’t
made at all-but grew up out Iv naw-
thin’. Me Idee Is that th’ wurruld is
a chunk Iv th’ sun that was chipped
off he a colllsyon with th’ moon, cooled
down an’ advertised f’r roomers. As
to its age, I differ with th’ Bible. Me
own oplnyon lv th’ age of th* arth is
that it is about twinty-eight years
old. This is as far ns I go back.
“’Speckin’ lv th’ Bible, it is an In-
threstin* wurruk but th’ English is
poor. I advise all iv ye not to injure
ye'er style be readln’ the prislnt edi
tions, but if ye want rale good Eng
lish, ye will read th* Bible trans
lated Into Hoosier dl’lect be Proflssir
Lumsum Jlggs lv th’ Univarsity
Barry’s Corner, wnn Iv our gr-reatest
lithrachoors. whose los to th' sody
wather business was a gloryous gain
to rellljon an’ letthers. If ye want to
make a comparison to show ye how
llthrachoor has Improved, compare th'
wurruks iv Homer an' Jiggs. Homer
nodded. He niver nodded to me but
he nodded. But has Jiggs nodded?
Niver. He hasn’t time. He Is on his
four thousandth book now an* has
lamed to wurruk a sicond typewriter
with his feet. Read Jiggs an* Trget
about Homer. As Fr Shakes pere. he
is a dead man. Th’ oplnyon I have
lv 8hakespere Is so low that I will not
express It befure ladies. I ain’t sayin’
that bis wurruks have not been poplar
among tb’ vulgar. An’ he might have
amounted to something if he had been
IJJlcated but his language Is base an*
he had no Imagination. I guess that
will hold Bill f’r awhile. Th’ gr-reat
est potes th* wurruld has projooced
are Ransom Stiggs an’ J. B. Mulcoon
Iv Keokuk. Th’ Keokuk school lv po-
thry has all otbeVs badly stung. J.
B. Mulcoon has discovered more
rhymes fr dear thin Al Tinnyson Iver
heord iv.
” 'Me oplnyon !v poUytfcks If ye I
shut ask me fr It is that we
as well give up th* experiment. A
govemmint founded be an ol’ farmer
like George Wash'nton an’ a Job print
er like Ben Franklin was bound to go
oca# in toon. It has abandoned all
their ldeels, which was a good thing,
an’ made worse wans.. Look at Lin
coln. There’s a fellow iVrybody is al
ways crackin’ up. But what did he
amount to? What did he do but car
ry on a war, free th’ slaves an’ run
this mls’rable counhty? But who ask
ed him to free th’ slaves? I didn’t. A
man utterly lackin’ In principle an’
slnse lv humor, he led a mob an* wns
conthrolled be It. An’ who nr-re th’
mob that direct this counthry? A lot
Iv coarse, rough people who ar-re saw-
ln' up lumber nn’ ploklln’ pork an* who
niver had a thought lv th’ Higher Life
that makes men nsplre to better things
an’ indijestion. They ar-re ye’er fath
ers an’ mine, young glntlemen. Can I
say worse thin that? An’ to think lv
th’ likes lv thim runnln* this govern-
mlnt! By Jove, if I hnd raymlmbcred
las’ Choosdah that It was illlctlon day.
I’d have lamed fr’m me milkman how
to vote an’ gone down to th’ polls nn
dhriven thlm fr’m power. Well, there’s
wan consolation about It all: th’ coun
thry won’t last long. I noctlced th’
other day It had begun to crack. Whin
it sinks, ye'ers thruiy will be near th’
edge ready to Jump off. Annyhow, It
don’t matther much. Th* American
people ar-re all gettln* to be Indyans
again. Wnlkin ’down to-day I observ
ed twlnty-two people who looked 10 me
like Indyans. Nex’ week I inltnd to
verify me conclusyons be buyln’ a pic
ture iv an Indyan. But I’m intlrely
convinced that In three or four years at
laste, we’ll all be livin’ In wickey-ups
an’ scalpin’ each other. With these
few remarks, let us Inquirers fr know
ledge go out an’ commit suicide on th’
fut-ball field. Ruh-ruh-ruh-ruh-ruh!
Bazzybazoo, Tufts!’
"I like It. Hlnnlssy. What I like
most about It Is that a colledge pro
flssor niver speaks fr’m Impulse. He
thinks ivrything out thurly befure an
nouncln* his oplnyon. Th’ theery lv
me lamed frind down in Rockfellar’s
colledge that very soon ye'd see ine
r-rushin’ down Archey Road with a
tominyhawk In me hand, thryin
thrade off a pony f’r a wife an’ a wife
f’r a bottle of wood alcohol, didn't leap
out iv his gr-reat brain In a scanda
lous hurry. He pondered It long an’
carefully. Th* Idee sthruck him at
breakfast while he was eatin* hli
prunes an’ did not machure till he was
half through with th’ ham an’ eggs.
So with Pro-flssor Wlndhaul. He didn't
land on Lincoln till he was sure Iv his
ground. His first made inquiries
found out that there was such a man.
Thin he looked f’r his name among th’
gradjates lv Harvard. Thin he bumped
him. It’s a good thing Lincoln was
dead befure he was assaulted,
niver wud have survived th’ attack.
"It’s a fine thing fr th’ young men
who set at th’ feet iv these larned
docks. A little boy is chased away
fr’m home an’ enthers wan lv these
here simlnarles. He was licked yes-
terdah f’r neglectin’ to scrub below th'
chin but to-raorrah, he wijl be cheerin'
wildly while Proflssor Bumps tells him
universal suffrage was a bad break.
If he has a weak chest an’ can’t'play
fut-ball, he goes on Imbibin’ wisdom
onti! he arrives at th’ dew pint, whin
his alma mather hurls him at th* on-
fortchnit wurruld. He knows fifty
thousan’ things but th’ on’y wan Iv'
thlm that he cud prove is that Hef-
felflnger was a gr-reat fut-ball player.
Thin begins his rale colledge career.
Th’ post-gradlate coorse is th* best In
tb* wurruld.
”Th* enthranee fee is all he has. Th’
wurruld takes It away fr’m him th*
that we might mln y1t he thries to apply his colledge
" oFs Idee that undher th’
an’ women, cspecyally women. Ho
can’t shirk his lessons. He has to bo
up in th’ morning* bright an’ arly lam
in’ an’ passing* examinations. He’s
on’y told annything wanst. If he don’t
raymimber It th’ nex’ time he is asked,
Homo pro-flssor gives him a thump on
th* head. Anny time he don’t like his
dear ol’ alma mather, he con quit. Th’
wurruld ain’t advartlsln’ f’r anny stu
dents. It has no compettitors an* the
lists aro always full. Th’ coorse last
fr’m wan to sixty years an* it gets
harder to’rd th’ commincemint day. If
he’s a good scholar an’ behaves hlmallf
an* listens to th’ professors on’ wur
ruks, he can gradjate with honor*. In
anny case, he Is allowod to write out
his diploman. He knows best what
ho is entitled to.”
”If ye had a boy, wud yo slnd him
to colledge?” asked Mr. Hennessey.
"Well,” said Mr. Dooley, at tho age
when a boy Is fit to be in colledge. I
wudden’t have him around th’ house.”
FROM SOUTH AFRICA.
New Way of Using Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy,
Mr. Arthur Chnpman writing from
Durban, Natal, South Africa, says:
”As a proof that Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy is a cure suitable for old und
young, I pen you the following: A
neighbor of mine had a child Just over
two months old. It had a very bad
cough and the parents did not know
what to give it. I suggested that If
they would get a bottle of Chamber
lain’s Cough Remedy and put some
upon the dummy teat the baby was
sucking It would no doubt cure the
child. This they did and brought
nbout a quick relief and cured the ba
by.*' This remedy is for sale by all
druggists.
