THE WAY OF IT
Somo day whon I'm a millionaire,
Without n thing to do
But study how to pass the time
And bid this town adieu
And travel all nround tho world
In spoclnl Pullman trains
Until I run across a place
In which It never rains.
No doubt I'll like the place at first
Because thero'll be no mud.
And streets and walks won't be the
bods
Of waterspout or flood;
And then I'll bet within a week
I'll feel a deep disgust,
And hie myself to other towns
To dodge tho clouds of dust.

that tho delegutes do not como under
