But best I like it when I've fed this face of mine with jam and bread. When I have dined on Irish stew and beans and boiled potatoes, too, and pie and eggs and cheese and tripe, 'tis then I best enjoy my pipe.

'Tis thus in my Tuxedo hour ; the world that seemed sod .irk and dour, is blooming like rose of spring, and I'm in mood to laugh and sing. FOR RENT Five-room modern house on Seventh street.
