The Little Sorcvp Book
It's a ragged old book, all tattered and
torn.
Its badly soiled leaves by small, grimy
hands worn;
.The back has a crack.
And of gilt there's a lack;
"jL'he corners are bent and tho binding
forlorn. ."'"'
But never a book made by bookmak
er's art ' ' '
So precious by half to tho fond moth
er's heart
No gold you could hold.
Nor jewels untold,
Could bribe her from that little scrap
book to part
A picture cut out of an old magazine;
A badly gummed bit of a great moun
tain scene. " "
. And hero doth appear-
A winter scene drear.
Stuck in by a hand that was sadly un
clean. But tlie) pictures appear to her lovely
and fair.
The workmanship neat and beyond all

To eyes that are "wise " ' '
To the work that there 'lies
As a sample of baby's art instinct so
rare. o .

A tear, I declare.
In tho grimy page there!
'Twos only that lacking to make it
complete.
So lay it away In a safe, .secure nook;
'Twill bring back old days of the past
when wo look
With tears through the years
Of our hopes and our fears ---.

The Crooked Nan
There Was a crooked man who "worked
a crooked scheme.
He sprung a crooked trust while his
crooked eyes did gleam.
He "bought some crooked laws from a
lot of crooked men, "
And made a crooked fortune, but he
escaped the pen.
