ABSENTEES.

We’ve been in many cities Ami sailed from many docks. But never found a bootblack Who did not daub our socks. Youngstown Telegram. We’ve in many cities And sailed on many ships, But never found a waiter Who would refuse our tips. —Houston Daily Post We've been in many cities And sailed to many lands. But never found a youngster Who liked to wash his hands. —Baltimore News. We've been in many countries, All kinds of barbers sought, Eut we’ve, never heard one silent Who was told to “cut it short." —Yonkers Statesman.
