4 QUESTION.

AS Annie was carrying the baby one day,
Tossing aloft the lump of inanity,
Dear to its father and mother no doubt
To the rest Of the world mere lump Of hu-
manity-
Sam came along, and was thinking then, maybe,
Full as much Of Annie as she Of the baby,
"Just look at the baby" cried Ann, ia a aut-
Giving its locks round her fingers twirl;
"If was man l know that couldn't
Be keeping my hands of dear little girl"
And Sam gave wink if to say 'maybe,
Of the girls I'd rather hug you than the baby"
'Now kiss it," she cried, still hugging it closer,
''Its mouths like the roses the honey bee
sips"
Sam stopped to obey, and as heads came to-
gether.
There CHANGED to arise confusion Of lips
And as it occurred, it might have been. maybe,
Thut each got kiss. Sam, Ann, and the baby !.
It's hard to tell what just then was the matter.
For the baby was the only one innocent
there;
And Annie flushed up like full blown peony
And Samuel turned rcd to the roots of his
hair;
So the question is ,hus-you can answer it
MAJ, he,
Did Annie kiss Sam, OF dil both kiss the
baby?
