Their Souvenir spoon.

School had opened after the summer vacat ion (says the Spy), and the teacher was questioning the little boys and girls about what they had been doing in the way of recreation. Suddenly Johnny Jones said: "My mamma ana papa went to the World’s Fair.” “What did they bring you home, Johnny?” queried the teacher. “A souvenir spoon, marm.” “Did it have any words on it?" “Yea’m; ‘For a Good Boy.’ ” Susie Greengage was not to be outdone. “My ma and pa wont, too, ” said she. “And what did they bring you, Susie?" “A' spoon, and it had on it ‘Souvenir of the Fair.’" Teaaber looked over the smiling faces and observed Sammy Klepto, evidently waiting his turn. “Did your mother and father go to tho Fair, Sammy?” she asked. “Yes, marm; they brought me a big silver spoon.” “What words were on yours?” “Palmer House, marm." The Museo Borbonioo was a celebrated musoum of antiquities, sculptures, paintings, etc., in Naples, Italy. It received its naino from Ferdinand 1., in 181(), who placed in it the royal collections of antiquities and pictures. The greater part of the relics found at Herculaneum and Pompeii are deposited here. This musoum is now called Museo Nazionalo.
