A couplet that is attracting considerable attention and amusement ■among stockmen is being sent out dn a letter by the Chicago commission Ann of John T. Alexander. It deads with the quarantine established by the government as a precaution against the spread of the foot and mouth disease. It reads: I’ve traveled this country over, ;We battled and rolled on the floor, I’ve fought tlgei's, bears and leopards, And have often forced lions to roar.

We conquered all we have tackled, From Main t»o Argentine, ' Biit there 1s only one place that bias got my goat, That was down in Quarantine.
