is as follows: '
Seems t' me I'm always waitln', an tbe days
goes awful slow.
When tbe time for swimmln's over, then I'm
waltln' for the snow,
'N when the snow is fallln' 'n I tint got no

It seems to me that Christmas is a long, long
ways ahead.
'N then when Christmas gets here all the snow
' is off the ground.
'N I Jus' keep a w-aitla' for my birthday to

But that don't never last long, 'n when It's

" HERE lAND THERE.
Bishop Potter, of New York, is
trying to figure out 'which is worse
the obsequious flunkeyism of the
common people abroad or the free
and-easy manners of the indepen
dent American citizen. On his last
visit to England the 1 Bishop ' "was
addressed as "xour Grace ' until
the phrase became a nightmare.
When he armed ' home again : it
happened that the first perse n to
address him as he walked down
the gang-plank was a longshore
man, who knew him. "Hello, bish,
how are you?" said the man.1 and
the Bishop is wendering which of
the two styles is best.
