The Bohemians are very fond of music, and they never fail to greet any new-comers of importance with a serenade on the evening of their arrival.
HOW TOM DRESSES.
At Home.
grimy face,
A muddy boot,
A broken lace,
And shabby suit;
With threadbare knee,
And dusty coat,
And dirty collar
Round his throat.
Out Visiting.
Now see! his face is
All aglow;
He's tied both laces
In a bow;
He's combed his hair,
He's brushed his suit—
There's not a speck
On either boot;
His collar now
Is new and clean—
A neater boy
I've never seen.
Yet Tom should be,
Beyond a doubt,
As clean at home
As when he's out;
For those who dress
'Mid friends to roam,
Should dress as well
For those at home.
