said the little boy, in his deliberate,
solemn way, mamma, If l die, are

3.--Charade.

Old Farmer Smith was going to die,
And wished to make his will
So off he sent first Lawyer Jones
His wishes to fulfill.
He willed that James, his only son,
Should last the farm and stock;
A hundred dollars, more or less,
He willed his brother, Jock.
He didn't all his nephew. Sam,
But left him quite a sum
Although he was reckless chap
And fond of drinking rum.
