Exams are like the poor — we have them ays with us. — The Tripod. The Kiss. “ But “No.” “Just” — “No.” “Please — “No — ” “ Henry, why didn’t you shave ? ” If a fellow tries to kiss a woman and gets ay with it, he’s a man ; if he tries and esn’t get away with it, he’s a brute ; if he esn’t try to kiss her, but would get away ih it if he tried, he’s a coward ; and if he isn’t try to kiss her and wouldn’t get ay with it if he did, he’s a wise man. COMPOSITION ON A PAIR OF PANT Pants are made for men and not women. Women are made for men and n for pants. When a man pants for a woma and a woman pants for a man, they are pair of pants. Some pants don’t last. Pai are like molasses — they are thinner in 1 weather and thicker in cold weather. M are often mistaken in pants ; such mistafc are breeches of promise. There has be much discussion whether pants is singular plural. Seems to us when men wear pai it is plural, and when they don’t wear a it is singular. Men go on a tear in th pants, and it is all right; when the pants on a tear it is all wrong. If you want make pants last, make the coat first. Brownie, A oast Here’s to the Shorthand Shark, He’s always lucky if he ever gets a mark, He cribs all his algebra, flunks in his Geom, Steals all his theme paper ; never comes to harm, If he ever goes into business ; I pity his firm, Why he’s lower down than any worm! He lives at Winthrop Neck, is always in trouble, He’s so hard he chews soap and spits out bubbles, His feet bulge out, his chest caves in, He’s a pretty poor stick for the shape he’s in, So here’s to the Shorthand Shark, But I’d hate to meet him in the dark. A red automobile and a chicken vocalist horn will make a man drunk faster than whiskey.
