"I admit nothing, excepting that the only people who are fit to have money are the people who know how to take care of it."


OUR POLITE PARENTS

BY CAROLYN WELLS

Sedate Mamma

When guests were present, dear little Mabel
Climbed right up on the dinner-table
And naughtily stood upon her head!
"I wouldn't do that, dear," Mamma said.

Merry Moses

Merry, funny little Moses
Burnt off both his brothers' noses;
And it made them look so queer
Mamma said, "Why, Moses, dear!"

Johnny's Fun

Johnny climbed up on the bed,
And hammered nails in Mamma's head.
Though the child was much elated,
Mamma felt quite irritated.
