When each good day to near its
close with old Sol sinking to repose,
I shut the door on office life and come
on home to kin my wife. O when I
pull my weary shoes, I sprawl around
to rest my thews and seise the well-
known Journal-News to read good
Edgar Guest, his runes, and grina-
while at new cartoons. I love to read
in daily papers of cartoon people and
theij capers. I lovo to scan some
work of Dwig’s, some prank of Petie
Dink or Jiggs. I gaze with awe on
Jiggs’ wife Maggie, and thank the.

Gump, of Minnie With her arms akim­
bo of Chester and of -Uncle Bimbo.
It stirs my sympathy and dander to
see the wiles of Widow Zander; I
know a chin to often handy, and so I
sympathise with Andy, but Congress
has some spineless chumps much
wtn^e than any chinless Gumps. This
world so full' of Sorrow now, with
worry lines on every brow, would be

folks would crack their faces, if every
