SOME PRAIRIE E
& or CONCEPT.

DANGERS OF CONCEIT.
Myeboy, don't be conceited,
Twill not do.
The9world was long completed,
Before you.
Don't think it Wobbed and wiggled,
Or from out its orbit liggled,
When first you gooed and giggled,
"Tisn't true.
Don't think when you are travelling
Out afar,
And the train stops with a sudden
Jolt and jar,
That the engine in its gliding
Is stopped and backward sliding,
Because your weighty self is riding
In the car.
When you slip and fall and crack the
Hard, hard ice,
Don't go and read the paper
In a trice,
To see il you can find a
Tale of earthquake DER in China
At about the time you fell-it
Isn't nice.
Don't think when you are walking
Up the street,
You're the cynosure. of all the
Girls you meet,
For YOU may mistake their real bent
Flattery be not their intent,
They may only pass harsh comment
On your feet.
I've seen a man all swelled up
In his mind,
Because everyone was staring,
Just to find,
As along the street he hasted
That his self conceit was wasted,
He just had a ssKick Me" pasted
On behind.
TWINS.
What's the difference a. 'twixt 'em?
Amt none at all / kin see,
One of ems jes' same as t'other,
An tOfher IS tn other, to me.
Like as tn breath o. two rosebuds,
Same as two strokes of a bell,
An TIL amt any way in their voices
On their eyes u their fggers to tell.
What's TIL difference a'twixt 'em?
Amt none whatever, there pears,
Smiles jes' like two rays o. sunlight.
Same as two dew drops their tears.
Lips like two pairs o. red cherries,
Swingin down from the same stem,
Eyes like two stars, twinklin', twink
lin,
What's the difference in them?
What's TIL difference a'twixt 'em?
Jes' amt no difference at all,
Heads bobbin' round my OF arm chair,
Like yellow leaves f1oatin' in Fall.
Two pair o. feet patt'rin' 'roun' me,
Like r%ain-drops on TIL grass in a
shower,
Could We tell il / showed ye two roses
Which perfume exhaled from which
flower?
What's the difference a'twiXt 'em?
Th' Amt any that We can tell,

An Mamie be jamie as well.

Picked out the D%rilliantest sunbeam
And fashioned it up into two.
