Miss Tipty Toes.

She darts from room to room
Like shuttle through the loom,
In and out away she goes,
Who can catch Miss Tipty Toes ?
Here she comes, there she flies,
Now she laughs and now she cries
Full of joys and Little woes,
Is my sweet Miss Tipty Toes.
Gibble, gable how she talks
She's never still, never walks,
And DER all the house it SHOWS
With gay bits Of Tipty toes.
Now your whiskers she will tug,
Then around your neck must hug
She loves you? no, don't suppose,
Passing mood of Tipty Toes.
She's thousand things more dear,
Thirteen dolls with all their gear;
Belize counts you one of those
At most does Queen Tipty Toes.
Yet most tender just at eve,
When all playthings she must:leave
Then for little respite shows
Artful heart of Tipty Toes.
Still by day, and still by night,
| grow fOnder of the sprite,
And her heart whoever knows
He must love dear Tipty Toes.
And | oft look down the years,
Thinking of the hopes and fears,
When the rosebud is rose,
And no more small Tipty Toes.

The Wilmington daily Republican. (Wilmington, Del.) 1890-1902, 1891-07-13

A man went to certain railway sta
ton in New Jersey to buy a ticket for q
small village named Morrow, where sta
ton had been opened only few days pre-
viously
"Does this train go to Morrows" asked
the man, coming up to the Office in o great
hurry, and pointing to q train on the track
with steam up and every indication Of q
speedy departure.
''No; it goes today" replied the ticket
agent, curtly. He thought the man was
.trying to be funny" as the saying goes.
"But," rejoined the man, who was In q
great hurry, "does it 60 to Morrow today"
"No, it goes yesterday, the week after
next" said the agent sorcastically, now
sure that the inquirer was trying to make
game of him.
"You don't understand me-" cried the
man, getting very much excited as the en-
gine gave warming toot; 81 want to go to
Morrow"
"Well, then," said tho agent sternly.
"why don't you go tomorrow, and not
come fooling around here todays Step
aside, please, and let that lady approach
the Window
"But, my dear SIR" exclaimed the be-
wildered inquirer, sit is important that
should be in Morrow today, and If the train
stops there, or if there is no train to Nor
row today"-
At this critical juncture, when there was
some danger that the mutual misunder-
standing would drive both men frantic. an
old official happened along and straight
ened out matters in less than a minute.
The agent apologized, the man got his
ticket, and the train started for Morrow
