Ain't It the Tilth.
W e liever blame the tailor when our pants we have to pin; We never blame the shoe man when our shoes grow’ old and thin: 'A c never blame the hatter when our lids we have to lout, But we always blame the laundry when our shirts wear out. —Cincinnati Enquirer. We never blame ourselves at all When things we try to do Are failures fiat and make us feel discouraged through and through; We simply say bur luck was bad —we did not stand a show, Although down in our secret hearts we know that isn’t so. —Birmingham Age-Herald. We never blame the typist when she writes our letters wrong; Aor blame the manicurist when she holds our hands too long,; We never blame the waitress if she serves a dirty plate, Rut we always blame our wife if the dinner’s late. —Wilkes-Barre Times-Leader. We never blame the milkman when the milk is looking blue; We never blame the cook when a hair is in the stew; We never blame the butcher when the meat is high in cost, But we blame the wljole household when the collar button’s lost. -—-Allentown Democrat. When our pants are frayed and ragged and our toes stick through our shoes, And our tongues are heavy coated, oh, we never blame the booze, And we never blame the maker when we break a worthless tool, But we always blafne the teacher when the children fail in school’ —Houston Post.
