Walt Mason's Ripping Rhymes
THE OLD MAN

As "a grows older in hoof and shoulder he has a frequent pain;
his back is aching, his heart is breaking at every little strain. We
should remember that 1fes December is cherries, cold and sad;
and not act bearish, but help and cherish the poor old failing dad.
The old stumbles, and snarls and grumbles, but we should
patient be; for time is sailing, and we'll be afing, and weak, some
dy. a s he. We're hale and hearty; Age is a party who seems affair,
remote: but Times a sprinter, and soon lfes winter will come and
get goat. And when W totter, and fuss and potter, as weary
old men will, may those around Us not stab and wound us, but ease
us down the hill. AS hair grows whittier the wayworn Brighter needs
kindness all the time; if you remind him that loves behind him,
you're guilty of a crime. The hippant daddy who's rude to daddy can
be nc friend of mine, though that sam crtter may fairly glitter
where social lions shine.

toward him. and, as one of his feet
rested on the IRON step of the machine,
in mounting, she began to clean the
snow from his shoe with her almost
aerial lace handkerchief. "You mustn't

"Stop that!" George shouted, and
furiously withdrew his foot. "For

Isabel consented. turning to Morgan,
whose habitual expression of appre-
hensiveness was somewhat accentu-
ated. He climbed up after her, George
Anderson having gone to the other
side. 'You're the same Isabel I used
to know" he said in low voice.

with the inventor: it seemed curious

had never heard until last night,

easily; and George felt that it was not

Morgan Eugene" the resentment of
the previous night came upon George
again. Meanwhile his mother and
Morgan continued their talk; but he
could no longer hear what they said !;
the noise Of the car and his uncle's
!songful mood prevented. He marked
how animated Isabel seemed; it was
not strange to see his mother so gay,
but it was strange that man not of
the family should be the cause of
her gayety. And George sat frowning.
Lucy turned to him. "You tried to

said. II knew you were doing that,
