however fine they be,
That has a cold and distant touch and
frets the soul of me.
The old home never looks so well, as
in that week or two
That we are servantless and Nell has
all the work to do.
There is sense Of comfort then that
makes my pulses thrOb
And home is as it ought TO be when
Nellie's on the job.
Think not that I'd deny her help or
grudge the servants pay,
When one departs we try to get an
other right away.
| merely state the simple fact that no
such joys I've known
As in those few brief days at home
when we've been left alone.
There is a gentleness that seems 10

And oh, / like to eat those meals that
Nellie gets herself
,ou cannot buy the gentle touch that
mother gives the place,
No servant girl can do the work with
just the proper grace.
And though you hired the queen of
cooks 10 fashion your crOquettes
Her meals would not compare with
those your loving comrade gets,
