THE CAKE POINTER.

In the sideboard apprehension
Thrills the hidden gingerbread;
Doughnuts, shrinking from attention,
SILVER with a nameless dread.
In the pantry devastation
Now begins its ruthless rule;
Hungrier than all creation,
Little Willie's home from school!
AS the pointer scents the rabbit,
AS the needle seeks the pole
Willie moves by force of habit
Toward each gastronomic goal
Shifts the air and tiptoes slyly
To the sideboard with a smile;
THAT there boy" says uncle, drily,
''He can smell a cake mile!'
Once we had maid named Tillie
Who was sly as any mouse.
Me for angel cake!" said Willie,
AS one day he searched the house.
Later Title cried, Il did it,"
(Saved the cake was what she meant
Meath the onions Tillie hid it,
Throwing Willie off the scent.
