An Offended sense of HumOr.
OF all the tiresome people in a world which
at its best
Has trouble in evolving things that really
interest,
The worst one is one who takes his pen in
hand to boldly write
Some words that long ago became familiar
to my sight
Occasionally he adopts the LATEST of ways
And works a rubber stamp to circulate his
faVorite phrase.
He never seems to realize that il is time
to quit;
lie exhausts his sense Of humor on the
sentence. PLEASE remitr'
I've listened to the stories that they've told
for years and years;
/ know Just when to laugh; do not have
to use my ears,
l love the gentle anecdotes all OF them far
from new.
The gay comedians repartee I patiently
pursue
Some of the quips that reappcar in prose
as well as rhyme
Grow closer 10 affection with the ruthless
lapse Of time,
But i wish some one would tell him that
the lowest form Of wit
Is that feeble played out epigram his con
slant please remit"

Suffragette Smiles

The Blessed Suffragette leaned out
Ger the reading desk at even;
The speech she had prepared would take
From eight until eleven.
She had two white gloves on her hands
And pins in her hat were seven.
Her robe designed by Madame Rose,
Hand-wrought flowers did adorn;
And a superb black chiffon coat ,zs,.,s.
Was very neatly worn.
And the chains that hung around her
throat
Were yellower than corn. - '
II wish that we could vote, dear ones!
For we will vote" she said. -,.
Have ] not on the finest gown
That Madame Rose has made?
Are not good clothes a perfect strength
And shall feel afraid?"
She plumed and rustled and then spoke
Less sad of speech than wild
She shouted gentle arguments
That couldn't harm a child;
And in terms quite acidulouS
The Ants she reviled.
/ saw her smile-but soon her smile
Was turned to naughty sneers;
She thought she saw another gown
More beautiful than hers!
She raised her lorgnon to her eyes
Then wept. 81 heard her tearsD
