"I saw my papa's last book before he wrote it," said Jimmieboy.
"How did that happen?" asked the visitor.
"It was a blank-book then," said Jimmieboy.
Bobby (on ferry-boat). "I know why the river is so angry to-day."
Jack. "Why?"
Bobby. "Because it is crossed so often."
Uncle John. "Jimmie, if I were to take one dollar and divide it into four parts, and give a quarter to each of your brothers, what would be left?"
Jimmie. "I would."
