Study of a lady who, during a Zeppelin scare, has fled to the cellar and thinks that, after all, it was a cowardly thing to do.


THE TOURIST.

Dear Chloe, how often my cravings

To winter abroad I've suppressed,

Well knowing my limited savings

Would last but a fortnight at best;

In vain have the posters adjured me

To sojourn in Monte or Rome,
