Jeff and Mutt. For years, with that amusing pair, he’s
chased away the people’s care, and made them laugh
and throw their hats, and cackle till
they broke their slats. The tired,
the sad, the weak, the worn, have
laughed with Bud, and ceased to
mourn; the lame, the halt, the blind,
the deaf, have whooped with glee
o’er Mutt and Jeff. Where does he
find the joyous jests which break the

think the fount would have to fail,
