How’s Business

“Business is poor,” said the beggar;

Said the undertaker, “It’s dead;”

“Falling off,” said the riding school teacher;

The druggist, “Oh, vial,” he said.

“It’s all write with me,” said the author;

“Picking up,” said the man on the dump;

“My business is sound,” said the bandman;

Said the athlete, “I’m kept on the jump.”
