ABOUT AB8lE.

Abbie Ben Adams, may her Tt,. be
spared,
Awoke one night and felt tiifs
scared:
For on her shirtwaist-box- cross legged
safe
A Vision writing on little slate.
Exceeding nervousness made Abbie
quake;
And 70 the Vision timidly she spake.
What writest thou?' The Vision
looked appalled,
At her presumption, and quite coldly
drawled:
THE list of Our Best People who
depart
For watering places sumptuous and
smart"
And am / in it?" asked Miss Abbie.

The scornful Vision said. You're poor
you know"
II know" said Abbie; Il go where it's
cheap.
/ can't afford mountains or prices
steep,
But ere You leave, just jot this item
down,
never leave my cats to starve in
town"
The Vision wrote and vanished
