“SOUND" SENSE.
Funny, ain't it.
How the sound
And sense
Abound
In close relation;
Hence

To “October";
And 'long in sad “September,”
Sorrowful "November,”
And in the farewell month
"December”—
We're prone then to "remember.”

"It was getting dark when the pa
trol wagon drove up in the alley by
the City Prison down here back of
where the old Tivoli used to be. On;*
of the bums makes a quick sneak and
goes up a fire escape to the top of a
new building. He lays low soon's ho
gets on the flat roof.
" Bout 10 o'clock that night Maurice
hears sneezin’. He goes up the fire
esca|>e . There's a bum lying low
on the roof.
“Get up!” says Maurice.
“No.' says the. hum; ‘I'm stuck on
this place.’ And then Maurice sees
what's the matter. After the hum
lavs low up there a while the new
tar they'd been putting on the roof
that warm day gets cold and holds
the hum tight.
“Maurice goes down to the jailkeep-
er and tells him, and they sends a
trusty up on the roof to watch the
bum all night. 'Bout 10 o'clock next
morning the tar warms up and they
gets the bum loose. It’s a kind of
hum story, but it's true.”
