ATLANTA CAPTURED BY ONE MAJOR AND A BULL.
(TllAtf)E MARK.)
THE WORLD’S CHOICE
Full tunny n time, in dajs gone by, •
t 'wnorsof prize stock all did try
Conclusions at tlto world’* great fairs.
And t« themselvesthey gave great sir*.
Stock of all bloods, witlupodijrree
Ah long a* the moral law could be,
With horns ereot, all extra fed
And groomed so sleek from tail to head.
-** ♦
With trumpetTiTtiro and n.Uclt ado
Their owners told their points am tv,
And each, quite certain of success.
With pity entiled upon the rent.
From Carolina’* sunny whore
There oamo a hull, who legend bore
L'ke this: “I’iii Blackwell'* pel
And rule the herd, don’t you forget ”
And true it wan, for in etch o*>*e
The Duriiatn Bull ha* won the race;
For any judge, “with half an eye,”
Ilia extra merit* could decry.
For every point, at tilt of lance,
The Durham, too, would aure advance;
The other* worried and perplexed,
Were thrown, and gored, and sorely vexed.
And now with medal*, half a score,
And ribbon* bundled yard* or mere,
This Bull of world fime, laurel crowned,
With atep majestic walks rround.
With conscious pride, hut no assumption
For merit wins without presumption,
The whole world bucks for suy bet
The Durham Bull brand cigarette.
THE BULL THAT ALWAYS? WINS !
