And raved about tho cost.

And wanted her to (ako It In real

There Is u ne'er-do-well In overy

A curso to that city sont,
Who lives In your house a couplo

And moves to pay the rent.
Thero Is a man, u dandy man,
Ho may your coiibclonco par,
When you mention his last month's
bill,
Will smllo and say, "Just paid It
on my car."
Hut thero Is n map I am glad to say,
Who novor scorns dismayed,
If ho can't get his bill nil cash,
Will take a part In trade.
Hut thank tho Lord, most men nro

So nro our women, too,
Thoir llko to pay tholr honest debts,
Whonovcr they como due.
