And her heart upbraids he:- sorely,
Though she did not mean to stay
When she fcil asleep last evening
And abandoned Yesterday.
lror she left a deal neglected
That she really should have done'
And she fear* she's lost some favors
That she fairly might have won.
So she’d liked to turn her backward
To retrieve them if she may— *
Will not some one kindly tell her
Where's the road-to Yesterday?
CHARIhRY’S OPINION OP THR BABY.
U ZZE R ’S bought a baby
Ittlc bit's of zing;
Zink T mos could put him
Froo my rubber ring.
Ain’t he awful ugly ?
Ain’t he awful pink ?
Just come down from heaven,
Dat’s a fib, I ziiik.
Doctor tole anozz-er
Great big awful lie ;
Nose ain’t oat ofjoyent,
Dat ain't why T cry.
Zink I ought to love him 1
No, I won’t 1 so zere ;
Nassy, crying baby>
Ain't got any hair.
