CoUETING HALF OF A FAT GIEI--Don Piatt
SAYS: IL was in love once with a fat girl
She was very fleshy; she was enormous. But
the course of my true love came to grief |
was sitting with her in the dim twilight one
evening; was sentimental; said many soft
things: embraced part of her. She seemed
distant; she frequently turned her lovely
head from me. At last | Thought heard the
murlnur of voices around on the other side
l arose and walked round, and then found
another fellow courting her on the left flank.
Iwas indignant and upbraided her for treach-
cry in thus concealing from me another love.
She laughed at my coneeit, as if she was not
big enough to have two lovers at once.
