THEN AND NOW

BY CAROLYN WELLS

WHEN my jokes appeal to the editors’ mind,

And they send me word they’ve kept ’em;

I am so glad if they’re the kind

Who pay when they accept ’em.

Months later, when in print I find

My charming lucubration;

I am so glad if they’re the kind

Who pay on publication.
